CSU Offering Tuition Awards To Veterans

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) -- Colorado State University is paying tuition, fees, housing and book stipends to U.S. military veterans and their children beginning this fall.

The program is part of a Veterans Program which pays public, in-state tuition for returning veterans or their designated transferees.

The university says it will provide full undergraduate resident or non-resident tuition and fees, about $4,300 per semester for a housing allowance and $1,000 per year for a book allowance.
