How to Apply...
ISA Direct accepts applications on a rolling admissions basis.
This means that we evaluate applications on a first come, first serve
basis. We do have an application due date, but students should apply
as soon as possible to allow for time to apply for a passport and
student visa if necessary. Once your completed application has been
received you will be contacted by phone and/or email with an official
status. Once accepted, you will receive an acceptance package in the
mail, complete with paperwork and a guide to studying abroad with ISA
Direct!
Just follow these four steps and you're on your way toward an
exciting opportunity to study in the country of your dreams! If you
have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us! Our phone
number is (800) 580-8826. You can also email us at
isa@studiesabroad.com. We'll be glad to answer your questions! You

Step 1 - Meet the minimum requirements
For most ISA Direct programs the GPA requirement is a minimum of
3.0 GPA.
If you have lower than the minimum GPA requirement please contact
the ISA office at 800-580-8826 to discuss your options.
Step 2 - Complete the application package
With your application ISA requires a copy of your college
transcript. While we do not require official transcripts your
transcript must be issued by your school. An unofficial or student
copy will suffice. We do not accept transcripts downloaded from the
internet. Make sure that your name and student ID number appear on
the transcript.
Read and sign all sides of the program application carefully,
including the refund policy and release located on the back of the
application. Also make sure to have your Study Abroad Office complete
the Academic Credits section on the back of the application to show
that you have pre-approval for the program. A program application
should be attached to the back of the ISA catalogue, or you can
download
the application.
Your application package should include:
Step 3 - Check the due dates for final forms
See our Prices and Dates page to find out when your forms,
application and payment are due. Applications should be submitted
several weeks prior to this date. Applications are processed on a
rolling admissions basis. Programs may close prior to the final forms
and payment due date if they reach capacity.
Step 4 - Mail your application package
Don't forget to double-check your application package! When it is
complete, send it to ISA. We'll contact you as soon as we process
your application.
