However, local students with an international background or strong connections to the international student community and active members of the International Student Society are also welcome to join. Please talk to us.

📊 Attendance Requirement – Please Read Carefully

To join the ISS Trip to Spain, all students must meet a minimum attendance of 50% in free ISS events and activities throughout the second semester (January to April).

✅ This applies regardless of when you purchased your ticket – the attendance count starts from the beginning of the semester, not from the date of booking.

⚠️ If you fail to meet this attendance requirement, your ticket will be cancelled and no refund will be issued, as clearly stated in our trip policy.

This policy ensures fairness and supports our goal of building a strong, engaged community. We encourage all students to actively participate in ISS events to make the most of their experience and remain eligible for our trips.
