[[Georgetown University|Georgetown University's]] website says "The Center for Social Justice (CSJ) is responsible for designating courses as “community-based learning” courses. Crucially, a community-based learning (CBL) course involves work with disadvantaged and underserved individuals and groups. Such work has traditionally been called “service-learning.” The language of CBL attempts to capture Georgetown’s central commitment to working with community representatives in designing CBL courses, courses that value the contributions of both campus and community to the learning experience of the students.

Such work has traditionally been called “service-learning.” The language of CBL attempts to capture Georgetown’s central commitment to working with community representatives in designing CBL courses, courses that value the contributions of both campus and community to the learning experience of the students.
 
The community-based learning model at Georgetown entails that each enrolled student complete at least 20 to 40 hours of structured community-based work, along with designated course assignments requiring active integration by students of their community-based work and central course themes and materials through course assignments, such as papers, reports, oral presentations, or exams. Through this model, individual students might be working with different CBOs; small groups of students might be working with a few CBOs; or all students in the class might be working together on one large project for one partner CBO. Courses under this model are offered at both 3 and 4 credits".<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Jacoby |first=Barbara |date=1999 |title=Partnerships for Service Learning |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/ss.8702 |journal=New Directions for Student Services |volume=1999 |issue=87 |pages=19–35 |doi=10.1002/ss.8702 |issn=0164-7970}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Marullo |first=Sam |last2=Moayedi |first2=Roxanna |last3=Cooke |first3=Deanna |date=January 2009 |title=C.

=== [[Northeastern University]] ===
[[Northeastern University|Northeastern University's]] website says "Service-learning in CSSH has come in the form of teaching urban youth how to cook healthy and affordable meals, building a website to document humanitarian projects in post-earthquake Haiti, and allocating real-dollar grants to local nonprofits that address social and economic challenges. Many of the Dialogue of Civilizations faculty-led summer programs also integrate service-learning into their curricula.
 
CSSH students also have valuable opportunities to broaden their knowledge, skills, and social awareness by volunteering in the community outside of their academic curriculum. The Northeastern Center of Community Service serves as a clearinghouse for service opportunities through its own programs and events, and partnerships with more than 225 community-based agencies and programs".<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Miller |first=Julie |last2=Berkey |first2=Becca |last3=Griffin |first3=Francis |date=2015-10-01 |title=International Students in American Pathway Programs: Learning English and Culture through Service-Learning |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.32674/jis.v5i4.399 |journal=Journal of International Students |volume=5 |issue=4 |pages=334–352 |doi=10.32674/jis.v5i4.399 |issn=2166-3750}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Furco |first=Andrew |date=1996-01-01 |title=Service-Learning and School-to-Work: Making the Connections |url=https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/slceslgen/152 |journal=Journal of Cooperative Education |volume=32 |issue=1 |pages=7–14}}</ref>
 
=== [[Portland State University]] ===
The Student Community Engagement Center at [[Portland State University|Portland State]] writes on their website "The Student Community Engagement Center (SCEC) is committed to creating engagement opportunities based on the idea that every member of our community has the power to be an agent of social change. According to Tania D. Mitchell, Assistant Professor of Higher Education at the University of Minnesota, Critical Service Learning can be differentiated from traditional service learning by developing an explicit focus on social justice issues and centering community needs (2008). See Figure 1 for a visual representation of Dr. Mitchell’s model for Critical Service Learning.
 
Program of Study: Most students complete the graduate certificate in 4 academic quarter terms (1 calendar year); although it is possible to complete within 3 terms. Students have a maximum time frame for completion of 6 years. Courses are available every term; students may begin or finish any academic quarter and/or take individual courses as electives".<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Williams, D., Patton, J., Beyler, R., Balshem, M., & Halka, M.

=== [[Purdue University]] ===
[[Purdue University|Purdue University's]] website states that "At Purdue University, service-learning is an educational experience in which students: a) participate in an organized service activity that meets community-identified needs; b) use knowledge and skills directly related to a course, discipline and/or specific learning outcomes; and c) reflect on the service activity in such a way as to gain further understanding of course content and/or learning outcomes and an enhanced sense of personal values and civic responsibility. Service-learning can be academic or co-curricular in nature and should not be confused with volunteerism, community service, philanthropy, or advocacy".<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Jamieson |first=Leah |last2=Zoltowski |first2=Carla |last3=DeRego |first3=Frank |last4=Slivovsky |first4=Lynne |last5=Oakes |first5=William |title=An Analysis Of The Reflection Component In The Epics Model Of Service Learning |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.18260/1-2--13299 |journal=2004 Annual Conference Proceedings |publisher=ASEE Conferences |doi=10.18260/1-2--13299}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Foli |first=Karen J. |last2=Braswell |first2=Melanie |last3=Kirkpatrick |first3=Jane |last4=Lim |first4=Eunjung |date=March 2014 |title=Development of Leadership Behaviors in Undergraduate Nursing Students: A Service-Learning Approach |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.5480/11-578.1 |journal=Nursing Education Perspectives |volume=35 |issue=2 |pages=76–82 |doi=10.5480/11-578.1 |issn=1536-5026}}</ref>
 
=== [[Tulane University]] ===
Tulane University's website writes "Academic Service Learning is an educational experience based upon a collaborative partnership between the university and the community. “Learning by doing” enables students to apply academic knowledge and critical thinking skills to meet genuine community needs. Through reflection and assessment, students gain deeper understanding of course content and the importance of civic engagement. Placed at numerous sites throughout the city for a variety of courses, students spend 20 or 40 hours (depending on the class) completing their service throughout the semester".<ref>{{Cite web |title=30 US colleges that are excelling at community outreach |url=https://www.greatvaluecolleges.net/us-colleges-excelling-at-community-outreach/ |access-date=2023-03-28 |website=Great Value Colleges |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Moely & Ilustre |first=B & V |date=2014 |title=The Impact of Service-Learning Course Characteristics on University Students' Learning Outcomes |journal=Michigan Journal of Community Service Learning |volume=21 |issue=1}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Moely |first=Barbara E. |url=http://worldcat.org/oclc/832787080 |title=Charity and Social Change: The Impact of Individual Preferences on Service-Learning Outcomes |date=Fall 2008 |publisher=Ann Arbor, MI: Michigan Publishing, University of Michigan Library |oclc=832787080}}</ref>

Vanderbilt University shares a lot of information regarding community engagement which can be another term for service-learning. "[[Community engagement]] pedagogies, often called “service learning,” are ones that combine learning goals and community service in ways that can enhance both student growth and the common good.  In the words of the National Service Learning Clearinghouse, it is “a teaching and learning strategy that integrates meaningful community service with instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, teach civic responsibility, and strengthen communities.”  Or, to quote Vanderbilt University’s Janet S. Eyler (winner of the 2003 Thomas Ehrlich Faculty Award for Service Learning) and Dwight E. Giles, Jr., it is

''“a form of experiential education where learning occurs through a cycle of action and reflection as students. . . seek to achieve real objectives for the community and deeper understanding and skills for themselves. In the process, students link personal and social development with academic and cognitive development. . . experience enhances understanding; understanding leads to more effective action.”''
The [[University of Notre Dame|University of Notre Dame's]] website writes "The McGrath Institute for Church Life offers training, scholarship, and practical experience for undergraduate and graduate students considering or committed to lay ministry". Students at the University of Notre Dame have the opportunity to be in several different service learning activities which include learning about Catholic theology, ministry, spirituality, and formation.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2020-07-21 |title=Top 25 Universities For Non-profit And Community Service Ranked By Return - Best Value Schools |url=https://www.bestvalueschools.com/rankings/non-profit-and-community-service-ranked-by-return/ |access-date=2023-03-28 |website=www.bestvalueschools.com |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Chambers |first=Dianne J |last2=Lavery |first2=Shane |date=2012-04-01 |title=Service-Learning: A Valuable Component of Pre-Service Teacher Education |url=http://ro.ecu.edu.au/ajte/vol37/iss4/7 |journal=Australian Journal of Teacher Education |volume=37 |issue=4 |doi=10.14221/ajte.2012v37n4.2}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last=Askildson |first=Lance R. |last2=Kelly |first2=Annie Cahill |last3=Mick |first3=Connie Snyder |date=2013-08-20 |title=Developing Multiple Literacies in Academic English Through Service-Learning and Community Engagement |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/tesj.91 |journal=TESOL Journal |volume=4 |issue=3 |pages=402–438 |doi=10.1002/tesj.91 |issn=1056-7941}}</ref>
