About the College of Southern Idaho
Greetings! On behalf of our Board of Trustees, faculty, staff, and students, I welcome you to the College of Southern Idaho. Since its founding in 1965, CSI has grown from humble beginnings into a comprehensive community college that impacts the lives of tens of thousands of students and community members every year.
Our core mission at CSI is to give students access to higher education opportunities, provide them with the support systems they need to thrive, and ensure they are successful in the pursuit of their educational goals. Whether they are dual credit students, looking to transfer to a four-year college or university, seeking to begin a career in local industry, or pursuing short term training that will allow them to advance in their current job, our students are our primary focus.
At CSI we are recognized for our outstanding faculty, beautiful campus and facilities, and student-centered environment. In addition to excellent classroom learning, our students can also participate in student government activities and special interest clubs, root on our national caliber athletic teams, and enjoy our top-notch fine arts productions. We take great pride in offering innovative and state-of-the-art educational programming while maintaining an affordable, personalized experience for our students.
We are committed to being the area’s community college. Whether serving our neighbors through economic and workforce development, cultural and athletic opportunities, or community enrichment courses, we are proud to play a key role in the growth and education of the Magic Valley, and beyond.
Please take some time to learn about the College of Southern Idaho and all that we have to offer.
Go Eagles!
