Pricing, Payments & Scholarships

Payment Includes:

• Roundtrip transatlantic air travel with one piece of checked luggage (up to 50 lbs.)
  • You may purchase your airline ticket independently, in which case we reduce the Program Cost by $1,200; however, the program directors must approve this option in every case (contact: irish@georgiasouthern.edu)
• Lodging (with secure-access entry) for the duration of the program.
• Welcome and farewell group meals
• All official program-related travel within Ireland/Europe, including transportation from the airport on arrival day and to the airport on departure day.
• Fees and other expenses associated with guest lecturers, speakers, and performers.
• Fees and other non-food/drink expenses associated with EFEXes (educational field experiences), including but not limited to admission to museums, parks, and other venues.
• Some Georgia Southern University Wexford merchandise.
• The international travel-insurance package required by the University System of Georgia.
• The international health-insurance package required by the University System of Georgia.

Payment DOES NOT include:

• Georgia Southern tuition and the university’s technology fee.
  • You can apply the HOPE scholarship, the PELL grant, and many other forms of financial aid to your tuition.
• Academic books and supplies.
  • Your instructors are committed to minimizing these expenses, and many courses require no books or other supplies.
• Food and drink.
  • Lodging in Ireland is in apartments with fully equipped kitchens that allow you to self-cater using grocery-store purchases (a major cost-saving versus dining in restaurants).
• Incidental and personal expenses.
• Personal travel within or outside Ireland that is in addition to the official travel that the program provides.
  • While Fridays are technically program days (for study and other work), we strive to keep them free of scheduled activities; thus, students who so choose should be able to plan three-day travel weekends, always complying with the travel-with-a-buddy requirement.
