The Professional Student Exchange Program (PSEP) allows students in specific western states and territories to enroll in selected out-of-state professional healthcare programs and pay reduced tuition.

Typically, a state will support its residents through PSEP in fields of study when a state-funded program is not available to its residents.

Students in Western states that are planning to attend healthcare professional schools, including:

• Dentistry
• Allopathic and osteopathic medicine
• Occupational therapy
• Optometry
• Pharmacy
• Physical therapy
• Physician assistant
• Podiatry

A chart showing fields and eligible states is provided on the program website.

Reduced tuition at out-of-state schools. Depending on the field of study and place of enrollment, a PSEP student can save between $8,000 and $32,000 per academic year.

Prospective students apply directly to the programs in which they wish to enroll and work directly with their home state certifying officer to become certified so that they can be considered for PSEP support.

Veterinary (DVM) applicants are strongly encouraged to certify before September 15th. Montana DVM applicants must certify by September 1st. Applicants for other professional healthcare programs must certify by October 15th of the year prior to admission.
