We view the CCCU GlobalEd programs as an extension of our CCCU campuses and are always looking for ways to partner with CCCU institutions to build our programs into specific degree programs and supplement on-campus coursework.
 

Building CCCU GlobalEd Programs into a Major/Minor

A number of CCCU institutions have built our programs into specific academic majors/minors they offer. Building a CCCU GlobalEd program into an academic major benefits our partner institutions through creating an experience that can be marketed to perspective students and help grow enrollment at the partner institution. Since we are an extension of our member campuses, the programs can be marketed as their own rather than a separate third-party provider.

For more information about creating a partnership between your institution and CCCU GlobalEd, please contact our team.

Throughout the academic year we host visitors from our partner schools at our programs. These visits are a great way to get a firsthand understanding of the life-changing experience students get on CCCU GlobalEd programs. If you are a faculty or staff member interested in visiting one of our program locations, please fill out the form below and one of our team members will reach out to you about scheduling a visit. If you have more specific questions about setting up a program site visit, please contact our team.

While our programs are designed specifically for our CCCU institutions, we work with many colleges and universities that are not part of the CCCU. We regularly have students attend our programs from a number of different colleges and universities, both public and private, religious and secular.

Students participating in CCCU GlobalEd programs earn credit in one of two ways:
 

Home Institution Provides Official Transcripts

Most students who attend CCCU GlobalEd programs receive academic credit directly from their home campus. We are happy to work directly with any college or university to secure institutional approval for any particular CCCU GlobalEd program. Below are a few examples of how we work with different institutions to offer our programs to their students.

CCCU Affiliation and Consortium Agreement

For non-CCCU institutions wanting to offer our programs to their students, we have developed a partnership agreement that allows students to attend our programs as if they went to a CCCU member institution. Through this agreement, institutions agree to transcript the courses students take through their home institution and award them an official transcript for their semester.

One-Time Affiliation/Consortium Agreements

If an institution has their own affiliation agreements designed for third-party providers, we are generally willing to sign these for students to attend our programs. These one-time agreements are similar to the CCCU Affiliation and Consortium Agreement, except they only approve a specific program for a single student.

For more information on developing a partnership agreement, or to have a one-time affiliation agreement signed, please contact our team.
 

CCCU GlobalEd’s School of Record Provides Official Transcripts

If an institution does not recognize academic credit from third-party study abroad programs and does not want to sign a partnership agreement, students can receive an official transcript through our school of record, Biola University. Biola University is a nationally ranked Christian university in Southern California that holds institutional accreditation from the WASC Senior College and University Commission and serves as the academic sponsor for all CCCU GlobalEd programs. This means that Biola University can provide an official transcript for the courses a student takes while on our programs.  At the conclusion of the semester, Biola will process a student’s credits and send their final transcript to their home institution.
