2. Visa & Consulate Visit (if applicable): The $150 listed is the cost for students to convert their X2, single-entry visa (obtained prior to arrival) to a double-entry visa. This conversion is required for internship course participants and/or students who plan to travel out of mainland China while on the program.

3.  Additional Meals: The cost of additional (out-of-pocket) meals will vary based on housing assignment.  The fee above is for those in Residence Halls.  Students in Homestays should budget $600 for additional meals.

Please note you may have additional expenses related to required or recommended immunizations. The Wofford College Office of International Programs urges you to consult our program materials, the Centers for Disease Control website, and your healthcare provider to assess such needs.
