In the weeks following the close of the programmes, a ranking list is drawn up for each of the three programmes—Exchange (Erasmus+ / Overseas), ISEP, and Study Abroad—and they will all be published simultaneously.
The ISEP network offers mobility opportunities worldwide, with the majority of destinations featuring academic coursework taught in English. Rankings will evaluate English language proficiency first; other languages (French, Spanish, or German) will be considered by the system only in the absence of English proficiency and where applicable.
The rankings are based on the criteria specified in the ranking calculation formulas and are used to award available spots and scholarships, allocated proportionally among applicants from the various Faculties.
The criteria used by ISEP for placement are the number of spots available at each university and course availability in the student’s field of study.
If ISEP is unable to assign one of the student's selected destinations, an alternative placement that matches the student’s academic profile will be offered.
Placement at one of the student's selected institutions is NEITHER AUTOMATIC NOR GUARANTEED; it is therefore essential to consult the placement chance ratings when researching host universities. At the end of the Placement Process, students will be notified by email from Cattolica International. Acceptance must be submitted in writing and finalized with the payment of the programme fee.
Once the selection process is complete, Cattolica International will contact the selected students—via their @icatt email—to invite them to a meeting with the programme coordinator, followed by a meeting with the professors responsible for course recognition and credit transfer. Attendance at these meetings is essential to ensure the proper planning and organization of your semester abroad.
