This course will be taken the third year that students are enrolled in the Honors program. The course fee will cover all travel expenses to the study abroad location and while on location, as well as food, lodging, and other costs associated with the course. The course fee varies depending on the location. The estimated cost for a European location is $2800. Students will be notified of the final course fee costs the Fall semester before the course runs (that next Spring). Upon acceptance into the program, students are encouraged to begin saving/planning for the HON 330 course fee.
