CAMPUS SUMMARY
The College of Southern Maryland (CSM) founded in 1958 is a public, regional community college with a far-reaching mission - to help our students and community meet the challenges of individual, social, and global changes. CSM operates four campuses in the tri-county area. The LaPlata campus and the Waldorf Center for Higher Education are both located in Charles County. The Prince Frederick Campus is located in Calvert County, and the Leonardtown Campus is situated in St. Mary's County.


UNIQUE/SPECIAL PROGRAMS
CSM offers a wide range of associate's degree programs, certificate programs, letters of recognition, and continuing education courses for professional and career development. Students can also earn a four-year degree through CSM partnerships with colleges and universities such as Johns Hopkins University, Towson University, University of Baltimore, and University of Maryland University College. In addition, the college offers wellness and fitness activities, theater and fine arts programs and personal enrichment courses. CSM prepares its students for transfer to four-year colleges; over 40 percent of CSM credit students enroll in transfer programs.
CSM's partnerships with four-year colleges provide students the opportunity to earn their bachelor's degrees in Southern Maryland. The programs allow students to easily transfer locally between institutions with minimal risk of wasted credits, while saving thousands of dollars on tuition, fees, housing and transportation.
