Students who wait and select apartments will transfer their rent from their bank account to their landlord’s account.

6. COVID Test: Cost for COVID-19 testing in Germany is currently required for re-entry to the U.S. for all travelers. Students may incur costs for other pre- and post-arrival COVID tests in their host country as well.  Please see Department of State COVID country specific information for updated entry and exit testing requirements.

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.
