Students may work with their home university to receive academic credit for their program.  Each academic institution has a unique policy for granting internship credit, thus students should inquire about receiving academic credit with their home university advisors, professors, and/or academic department heads.

Interns earning credit through their home institution will still have select assignments required to be completed by ISA as part of their program. 

Participants living in apartments (non-university housing) will be placed with other ISA interns and students. Participants are placed in one of two apartments accommodations. Both options are fully furnished, centrally located housing that is located close to public transit routes.  Accommodation possibilities include a shared apartment, fully-furnished apartment. Rent, electricity and bedding are included.  Meals, towels and laundry service are not included.
