Funding

TREP participants remain students in their Local Education Provider (LEP) for up to two years following their 12th grade year. The LEP receives TREP specific per-pupil state funding that it uses to pay their college tuition at the resident community college rate. Students receive their high-school diplomas at the end of their TREP year. [C.R.S. § 22-35-108.5]
