Study Abroad
Columbia College provides study abroad opportunities.
Students are encouraged to explore opportunities
to study outside the United States. The
college is a member of the Missouri London
Consortium and the Central College (IA) study
abroad consortium.
The college also offers a study abroad tour to a different country each year. Participants in the study tour may enroll for up to six hours of course credit as part of the eight week summer session. Dr. Brian Kessel is the Study Abroad Advisor and advises students about the availability, value and academic appropriateness of these programs.
To help defray costs for study abroad, students
may apply for financial aid through Registration and Financial Services.
Federal financial aid, such as the Pell Grant or student
loans, can be used to help finance study
abroad. Institutional grants and awards cannot be
used for study abroad. Students who are interested
in obtaining more information about these opportunities
should contact Dr. Brian Kessel, Study
Abroad Advisor.
