◦ Things to consider: Cost: Even though you are paying tuition directly to IDC, you are responsible for the
cost of food, travel, accommodations, insurance, and all other fees associated with studying abroad.
Housing: On-campus housing is available at some institutions at an additional cost; at others, students are responsible for finding their own accommodations.
Courses: Courses must be approved by your advisor at IDC. Students who do not graduate on time are not exempt from any fees associated with the cost of an extra semester.
Language: Consider how easy/hard it will be to get around without knowing the host language
Consider your mental preparedness for life in another country. While studying abroad may be the experience of a lifetime, keep in mind that living in another country is very different from travelling in it. This is not a weekend vacation; things are different than what you are used to at home.
