Study in the U.S.A. - Midwest (in English) - ISEP Exchange
As an ISEP student, you can build your own program by choosing your courses from a variety of fields. Use the notes for course searching to help you find which courses are available.
Hamline University especially welcomes students interested in the Certificate in International Journalism. ISEP participants who are journalism majors may be able to complete the certificate in one semester; otherwise it is an academic year program. Internships with news media are a part of the certificate program.
Some classes are writing intensive, where papers or other writing assignments will be the basis of the grade. Others are speaking-intensive, and students will be assessed on oral work. Other classes rely on essays or multiple exams to grade a student's work. Most classes are small, and regular attendance is required. All classes are taught by faculty members, not by graduate assistants. The Center for Academic Services provides free tutoring to all students.

On campus dormitory housing available for students. Laundry services and cooking facilities available onsite.
MEALS
Students receive a meal plan that includes 21 meals per week to be used at the university cafeteria.
