Cleveland State University
Cuyahoga Community College and Cleveland State University (CSU) have created special agreements to help you earn a Bachelor degree. Work with a counselor at both institutions to earn your Associate degree and then transfer seamlessly to complete your Bachelor degree.
In response to COVID-19, CSU is offering alternative options to learn about CSU and take virtual tours.
