Foreign Languages. If you have taken two or more years of college-level courses in the language of your prospective host country, you should be able to enroll in regular courses, read textbooks, understand lectures, take part in class discussions and do written work in that language. Most sites offer intensive pre-session language programs or supplemental courses during the academic year to help you adjust.

ISEP participants register as regular students and participate in the same activities as students at the host institution. Except for language and civilization courses designed for international students, the courses that ISEP participants take are the same as those attended by local students.
