Study Abroad Updates
1. Regretfully, MSUM has withdrawn its membership of the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP) because of low enrollment numbers and the increasing cost of membership. However, our office will continue to assist students in participating in the program through an arrangement with NDSU, to be implemented shortly.
