ISEP-Exchange
Each outbound participant pays the cost of an academic term (tuition, housing and meals) at the home institution and for every student sent abroad the institution receives one in return. ISEP facilitates exchanges between our members world wide and manages the exchange balances.
ISEP-Direct
Fee-paid study-abroad programs at member institutions, open to all ISEP-Direct and ISEP-Exchange members; participants pay a fee to ISEP, which covers the host institution’s program cost.

Established in 1979 under authority of the Fulbright-Hays Act as the International Student Exchange Program at Georgetown University, ISEP was supported by a grant from the (former) United States Information Agency until 1996. In 1997, ISEP was incorporated as an independent organization.
