Baltimore Student Exchange Program

BSEP is a program that allows qualifying undergraduate students at Baltimore-area institutions to take selected courses at other participating campuses while only paying tuition at their home school.

At the end of the semester, the student’s credits and grades from the host institution are transferred to their home institution. This differs from standard transfer coursework in that both credits and grades transfer.

Institutions participating in the BSEP include:

Before advising, students will be expected to submit a BSEP Enrollment Form.  For further information refer to the BSEP Procedures and Policies.  Be advised that registration for these courses will not take place until the General registration date for each semester.
