CCSA offers exciting courses & destinations

    CCSA is a higher education consortium of 24 colleges and universities with member schools from Alabama, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota and Tennessee. CCSA is headquartered at Northern Kentucky University in Highland Heights, Kentucky.

    Dr. Michael Klembara, Executive Director, with the assistance of his staff and guided by policies determined by the CCSA Board of Trustees, annually develops, plans and coordinates study abroad programs in Australia, Belize, England, Ghana, Hong Kong, India, Ireland and Scotland. Students can receive higher education credit (undergraduate, graduate, etc.) for successfully completing the CCSA program in which they are enrolled. The classes are taught by faculty from consortium-member schools. In addition, internships are available in Dublin, Ireland; London, England; and Sydney, Australia. Special non-credit programs, such as choir tours and alumni trips, are planned in English-speaking regions as requested.

    All undergraduate and graduate students in good standing are eligible to participate in any CCSA program. Regular or part-time students at CCSA member institutions must register for courses through their home institutions. Students from institutions outside the consortium register as visiting students at Northern Kentucky University. CCSA program courses are part of the regular course offerings of member universities; therefore, students may apply for any student loans or grants for which they would normally have eligibility.
