CSU International Programs

 

CSU International Programs encourages study abroad for an academic year to maximize both personal and academic growth, but offers semester options at a number of their locations.
  • The following programs generally require a full-year commitment: 
    • Australia, Canada, Denmark, Japan, South Korea, and most United Kingdom locations. 
    • Occasionally an institution will have additional space and offer a few Spring Semester options, but in general you will need to commit to a full year for these locations.
  • All other programs provide both semester and year-long options.
