Welcome - Colorado College

International Education at Colorado College is about more than 'just' off-campus study opportunities. Every year, international resident scholars, guest lecturers, and professional performers come to CC to teach, mentor and perform. Our own faculty not only teach on campus, they also take their blocks abroad to teach students on locale. Abroad opportunities also include international service learning in India or venture grant funding for student research projects. A growing number of international students decide to enroll at CC, creating an even more culturally diverse campus. Cultural Program Coordinators --host nationals from Chile, China, France, Italy, Japan, Germany, Russia-- live in the residential language houses, offering language instruction and cultural events for the entire campus.

At CC, we want our students, staff and faculty to experience the world, both on and away from campus.
