Participation Fee

The fee for each immersion trip helps defray the costs of transportation, meals, housing, and fees to host organizations. Students are responsible for food during travel to and from immersion location. It is recommended that students bring $50 for incidentals and spending money. We do not want monetary limitations to prevent anyone from participating in the immersion program. We are able to work with students on an individual basis to provide additional support through scholarships, payment plans and fund raising.
