Semester or Year in Chile
ISEP is a total immersion program. In most cases, ISEP participants register as a regular student at the host institution, take the same courses and have the same assignments, and participate in the same activities as the local students at that institution. This means that a student applying for an ISEP site must be more proactive and prepared to handle being in a location where they may be the only KU student in the program.
For more information on ISEP sites in Chile, visit the general ISEP Website. Specific school links are in the "Academic Information" section below.

Enjoy the finest vineyards while eating an amazing array of fresh seafood in Latin America’s most economically and politically stable country.
