Washington State Community College Consortium for Study Abroad (WCCCSA) provides quality study abroad programs for member colleges in the state, including Columbia Basin College. WCCCSA provides for-credit quarter programs for pools of students from all the member colleges, taught by faculty from in-state community colleges. WCCCSA selects international locales and manages the academic component of each study abroad program. Each college contributes to program development, faculty selection, and student recruitment. Faculty are selected from member colleges to teach programs abroad (language and culture are taught by local instructors). Students register for courses at the home campus, and credits and grades are posted on the student’s home campus transcript.
More information about upcoming study abroad opportunities, program requirements, financial aid, and scholarships can be found on the WCCCSA site.
