The Coloradoan: CSU launches online university
Colorado State University is launching a $12 million online university that will help students who don’t have the time or money to get a traditional on-campus four-year education.
Called CSU-Colorado, and approved by the CSU Board of Governors on Friday, the online university will serve Coloradans and out-of-state students.
The board was asked to approve $4.5 million from the system’s budget for the new online university, with a business plan calling for a total $12 million investment, with the virtual doors open by next year. CSU is partnering with the Colorado Com-munity College System to create CSU-Colorado.
