YOUR LEARNING EXPERIENCE

Let's talk about what you learned off-campus
Describe two or three primary goals you accomplished while off-campus, for each of the academic, cultural and personal arenas.
Colorado College strives for four principles to be present in all of our approved off-campus study programs. All should:

1) Provide a serious academic experience, comparable in rigor to the academic program at CC.
2) Present unique opportunities for learning not available at CC.
3) Enhance a student’s undergraduate education, relating to and building upon course work already completed at CC.
4) Provide a high-quality learning environment: they should be appropriately staffed, have well-developed health, safety and emergency procedures; and provide strong students support services.

In your opinion, how well did your off-campus study program meet (or fail to meet) these four standards?
What were some of the best aspects of your particular off-campus study program?
