(b) “Institution of higher education” or “institution” means a state institution of higher education identified in section 23-18-102 (10)(a), a local district college as defined in section 23-71-102 , or an area technical college as defined in section 23-60-103 . (c) “Veteran” has the same meaning as set forth in section 28-5-100.3 and includes a member of the Colorado National Guard. (2) An institution of higher education that has a program or policy that permits a person to audit a course offered by the institution for no credit shall, as part of the institution’s program or policy, permit a veteran to audit a course for no credit, subject to any other requirements of the program or policy. The institution may set and collect a fee of no more than ten dollars per course audited by a veteran.

An institution may permit a veteran to audit additional courses for a fee in a different amount set by the institution.
