Dates, Expenses, and Housing

PROGRAM DATES

The program will take place during the fall of 2013, and will roughly correspond to the Carleton term. Specific dates will be announced later.

LOCATION AND LODGING

The program begins with a two-week stay in Rome, Italy. In Madrid, classes will be held at the Colegio Mayor Universitario Chaminade. In order to immerse themselves in Spanish life and language, students will stay with carefully selected Spanish families.

EXPENSES

Students pay the 2013-2014 Carleton comprehensive fee, which covers the costs of instruction, room and board, public transportation in Madrid and Rome, all group excursions, and most cultural events.

Students are responsible for the cost of books, personal expenses, and transportation to and from Madrid, between Rome and Madrid, and personal travel during the seminar. Estimates for expenses beyond airfare run from $400-$500 for ten weeks (around $200 per month). Student financial aid is applicable as on campus.

See the Off-Campus Studies website for further information regarding work contracts, loans, and other financial aid issues.
