KCC students have the opportunity to study in a foreign country through the college's participation in the Illinois Consortium for International Studies and Programs (ICISP).
The program is designed to help create a better understanding of these cultures by offering American undergraduates the opportunity to study literature, history, art, and politics in a foreign land.
Programs abroad include short-term summer programs and semester-long programs in Sydney, Australia (summer only); Salzburg, Austria; Xi'an, China; San Jose, Costa Rica (summer only); Canterbury, England; Dijon, France (summer only); Carlow, Ireland; and Seville, Spain.
Check out the ICISP web site at http://www.icisp.org/.
Participants must have completed at least 12 semester hours of college credit courses at KCC and have a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.75. Enrollment in Study Abroad courses that are approved for credit by KCC may be considered when determining enrollment status for assistance under the Title IV, HEA programs. Study Abroad Program course enrollments may be included when applying for financial aid assistance.
Study Abroad Scholarships are available through the KCC Foundation. Consult the KCC Foundation Scholarship booklet for more information, including application deadline dates. Scholarships awarded each spring would be available for use in the upcoming semesters of summer, fall or spring.
Program application deadlines are April 15 for the following fall semester and Oct. 15 for the following spring semester. Summer term deadlines vary depending on the program selected.
