FUNDRAISING

How can I pay for an immersion experience?
Our goal is for students to pay as little out-of-pocket as possible. However, ultimately the student is responsible for complete payment of their experience by the established deadlines. 

Student coordinators receive a 33% discount on the cost of their immersion experience (ie. a $1,200 trip costs $900 for a student coordinator).

Students can participate in fundraisers organized through the "Immersion" program. In addition, participants will ask those they have personal connections with (family, friends, former teachers, church/parish, etc.) for financial assistance, in addition the group will develop ways to fundraise collectively. Any money raised by individuals above-and-beyond their costs can be applied to another participant who is in need. Any money raised beyond the groups needs will be donated to agencies the group will come in contact with during their experience.
