Starting in the Fall 2024 semester, students who enroll will have tuition and fees
covered, after scholarships and grants, via a tax credit. Students can begin claiming
the credit on their 2025 taxes.
The Colorado Promise Tax Credit offers qualifying students the opportunity to graduate
debt-free with certificate(s), an associate degree, or half of a bachelor's degree.
Students with substantial concurrent enrollment credits may be able to complete an
entire bachelor's degree with this tax credit.
To claim the credit, you should make sure you meet eligibility criteria. If you do,
you will be automatically eligible to receive the tax credit - there is no separate
application. The tax credit fully reimburses tuition and fees paid out-of-pocket,
even if you take out a loan to cover out-of-pocket expenses.
If you enroll at PPSC, you will be notified if you are eligible for the program and
how much was paid in expenses for a given tax year. To receive the credit, you must
file state income taxes and request that amount. As the student, you must request
the Colorado Promise Tax Credit - not your parents, guardians, or others.
