Announcing The UNDERGRADUATE CENTER  14th Annual  International  Study & Travel Tour  for 2008

Greece,  Italy  and Turkey 

Please join us on the upcoming Triton College Undergraduate Center trip to  Italy, Greece and Turkey!  This is our 14th year offering low-cost educational travel with transferable college credit available. The cost for students under 22 years old will be in the range of $2590.00  for the trip itself, as well as approximately $65.00 tuition for the Triton 1-hour humanities class.  For travelers over 22 years old, it is approx. $3155.00. NOTE: To get such good prices on the trip, we must make all travel arrangements as early as possible.  That is why I am contacting you in the summer—before prices go up in late August. 




 

There is one $200.00 scholarship available for this trip, and the award is based entirely on the criteria set forth on the application. It doesn=t matter whether you are eligible to receive other financial aid to apply for this scholarship.  All travelers are eligible. For a complete application packet, go back to the Home page to fill out the online request for an application.

 

Last year the group was a good mixture of all ages and all backgrounds, including retired people, students from Triton, community members looking for educational travel at low cost, and students from other schools.

I sincerely hope you can travel with us!  We always have a great time! --Dr. Salzman
