Applying to ISP

***Our 2012 Admissions decisions will be sent out on Monday, April 2nd.***

You must file two distinct applications to be considered for ISP. First, you must file a regular application for admission to Northwestern University. A general application to Northwestern University can be obtained from Undergraduate Admissions. You must also file an ISP application directly with us. You can apply to ISP using the online application or if you prefer you can also use the downloadable form.  The downloadable form can be returned as an email attachment, by fax, or through the mail.

The application processes to Northwestern and to ISP are separate.  Admission to Northwestern is not a guarantee of admission to the ISP and the status of your ISP application will not effect your Northwestern general acceptance decision.

Need-based financial aid might be available from the university in the form of loans, grants, and part-time employment. If you want to be considered for financial aid, be sure to follow the instructions and observe the deadlines on Northwestern’s undergraduate application for admission.  ISP does not offer any additional financial aid or scholarships.

The ISP application deadline has been extended to March 9, 2012. Northwestern Early Decision applicants who have been admitted to the university may still apply!
