"Chico State professors will take a group of Chico State students abroad where they will receive credit for a specific Chico State Course. They are usually held during the summer or January Intersession."
A listing of available programs can be found here.
Many of our students participate in domestic exchanges between CSU, Chico and the 190 U.S. member institutions of the National Student Exchange (NSE) Consortium.
You may stay up to two consecutive terms at another college or university. Full student status at CSU, Chico is maintained, and all approved courses transfer back to your Chico State academic record. Because of our membership in NSE, Chico State participants may pay either CSU, Chico resident fees or resident fees/tuition at the host institution. This decision, however, is made by the host institution. In either case, non-resident fees/tuition is waived by the host institution.
