Professional Student Exchange Program (PSEP)

Professional Student Exchange Program (PSEP) is an affordable pathway to healthcare education.

  • The Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) collaborates with 12 western states and territories to provide a solution where students pursuing careers in 10 health fields may enroll in participating programs across state lines.
  • Students can receive substantial tuition support from their home state or territory.
  • A student going through PSEP can save $36,500 to $142,800 on tuition over the duration of the health degree study.
  • ISU offers Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Pharmacy, and Physician Assistant programs through PSEP, where certification is through your home state and the WICHE office.
  • For more specific information, please reach out to your program director or go to the PSEP section on the WICHE website.
