ISEP offers three different ISEP-Direct options in the UK. Responding to an increased interest on the part of students wishing to opt out of the meal and/or housing benefit in order to live with relatives or friends, ISEP now gives students the opportunity to make their own accommodation and/or meal arrangements while paying a reduced ISEP-Direct fee.
Students applying to the UK on ISEP-Direct may choose one of the following three options:
- Tuition, Room & Board
Cost includes complete benefits package (tuition, room, and board). Housing and meals are provided by the host university. - Tuition and Room
Cost includes tuition and room. Student will arrange and pay for own meals. - Tuition Only
Cost includes tuition. Student will arrange and pay for own housing and meals.
How to Apply
Students wishing to apply for an ISEP-Direct program in the UK should use the regular ISEP application when applying and indicate which of the three options they would like to be considered for, on their application next to the name of the institution. (Example: University of Strathclyde - ISEP-Direct: Tuition and Room Option).
