Program Types
Colorado College students are able to study on the following types of programs: 1. Colorado College Semester and Year Programs These programs are developed and run directly by Colorado College. They include programs organized by the College's academic departments as well as exchange programs offered in partnership with overseas universities. Classes are normally taught at a local university by faculty from Colorado College and/or from the host institution. Students may apply their CC financial aid to the cost of these programs. 2. Colorado College Affiliated Programs Colorado College also maintains affiliations with other programs. Affiliated programs include those sponsored by the Associated Colleges of the Midwest (ACM) as well as several other organziations. All affiliated programs have a faculty advisor at CC who works closely with students throughout the application process. Students may apply their CC financial aid to the cost of these programs. 3. Non-Affiliated Programs Some programs that are not directly affiliated with Colorado College are also available to students whose academic goals would not be met by existing study abroad options. The International Studies Oversight Committee has approved approximately 60 non-affiliated programs. These programs were selected for their high academic quality, fit with the Colorado College curriculum, strong student support services and the large degree to which participants are integrated with the host culture. Students participating in non-affiliated programs will not pay Colorado College tuition or room and board, but will instead pay the program sponsor directly. Students are not able to transfer their Colorado College financial aid to the cost of these programs and will be assessed a $300 administrative fee by the College. Off-Campus Courses The College also offers a number of one and two-block courses taught outside the U.S. that vary in location from year to year. These courses are taught by Colorado College faculty, and occur during the regular academic year and over the summer. Learn more about off-campus courses. |
