Students will be responsible for their own living expenses during their time in Vietnam.

1.2 Exchange Program in collaboration with ISEP:

By studying abroad on ISEP Exchange,  student pays tuition and fees to his or her home institution and open up a spot for someone to come learn at his or her university. 

To study abroad on ISEP Exchange, student’s home institution must be an ISEP Exchange member. ISEP Exchange Program allows  student to exchange in over 50 countries on six continents.

Pricing overview:

As a participant, out-going student pays a fee to his or her home institution based on the cost of regular tuition, fees, housing and meals, thus creating a “space” and set of benefits for an incoming student (open up a spot for someone to come learn at his or her home university). Each incoming student makes a similar arrangement at his or her home institution, creating a “space” and a set of benefits for the out-going student at his or her host institution.
