Budget estimate based on Fall 2023 fees (Updated 3/18/2023)
For program dates: September 4 - December 16, 2023 **
1. Housing & Included Meals: Housing cost and included meals vary by housing type. The figure above is for students staying in an Apartment. Students who choose the Homestay option are charged an additional $750 after the program begins. No meals are included in the Apartments; 14 meals per week are included in Homestays.
2. Location Transportation: Amount includes round-trip bus fare from Florence for program arrival and departure.
3. Educational Travel: Optional IES field trip costs range from $50 - $250.
4. Visa: Figure includes consular fees ($65), Wofford visa processing fee ($75), and on-site residency permit ($150). The Residency Permit Fees are paid on-site to the Italian Government (if applicable).
5. Passport: The estimated cost above includes the $60 fee for expedited service. Due to COVID-19 and its impact on the U.S. Postal Service, the U.S. State Department is currently experiencing delays in receiving passport applications with routine processing service estimated to take as long as 11 weeks. We, therefore, recommend that students send their application using USPS’ Priority Mail Express and consider requesting expedited service if able.
