SSPs are an effective way to immerse yourself in the experience of studying and living abroad for a shorter duration. They last for two to four weeks during the SMU term break between May and August, and allow you to transfer up to two credits towards your SMU degree programme.
Unlike ISEP, SSP fees are applicable.
Curated SSPs offer you the opportunity to participate in a programme, co-created by SMU and our partner universities, together with fellow SMU participants. Study and live abroad with the convenience of a pre-arranged programme, courses and accommodation. One such example is our curated SSP with Gadjah Mada University in Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
