Housing
Two programs (Vienna/Budapest and Istanbul) provide and require housing, for which a distinct housing fee is charged. Most programs reserve housing for participants, but participants may undertake alternative arrangements. A few programs provide listings, but students must make their own arrangements. See individual programs for details.
 
Transportation
Participants make their own arrangements to and from the program. In most cases transportation to site visits must be arranged by the participants (usually via public transit). In some programs (Vienna/Budapest, Istanbul, Oxford) transportation to sites is pre-arranged, and students are assessed a transportation fee therefore. See individual programs for details.
 
Materials
Books and materials must be purchased by the students. Usually, this takes place at the site. Costs for books and materials is commensurate to that one would pay for a similar course in the United States. See individual programs for details.
