ISEP Exchange Programs

ISEP Exchange allows Northwest students to pay NW tuition, fees, room and board to study abroad. Bearcat Advantage and Merit Scholarships apply. Choose from over 150 universities in more than 50 countries. Programs available for ALL majors. NOTE: The ISEP Exchange Application deadline is earlier than other program deadlines.

University Partners - Exchange

Looking for a cost-effective semester, year, teaching abroad or summer program? View Northwest's list of university exchange partners. You pay NW tuition + fees (most scholarships apply) and then housing/meals overseas. And when you study at a partner university, Northwest is able to welcome an international student from that school here. Programs available for ALL majors.

Faculty Led Programs

Interested in a shorter-term program with fellow Bearcats, taught by Northwest faculty? Explore opportunities offered during Winter, Spring, and Summer Terms. While some courses are major-specific for upper-division credit, most count toward your Northwest Core. Courses change every year, so come back often to check things out.

University Partners - Direct

View Northwest's list of direct international university partners. How are they different from Exchange? You pay tuition, fees, room, board directly to the international university—usually at a discounted rate because we are a partner. Plus, Direct Partners welcome Northwest students but usually can't send their students to Northwest.
