Total Fees and Budget Model for January 2020

Program Fee: $1,500 or less (The final participant count and results of external funding I have sought should allow me to lower the program fee.)
Included in Program Fee: Shared lodging, classes and classrooms, local transportation, 10-12 site visits, 2-3 excursions, 3-4 group meals, IDI tests and individual and group interpretation.
Not Included in Program Fee: Transportation to France (airfare and airport transfers),  most meals, and personal expenses.
The details below are an estimate of what students may spend for participation in the course. Please note that students will be housed in apartments with full kitchens. In the previous courses students have spent less on food than included in this budget projection.
Paris, France
Dates Jan. 2 – 22
MIIS Program Fee $1,500
Vaccinations & Prescriptions 0
Visa a/o Edit/Entry Fees/Tourist Card 0
Lodging Included in program fee
Food (not included in program fee – see details on estimation process below) $350
Local Transportation/Site Visits Included in program fee
Airfare $1,100
Airport Transportation $180
Misc. Personal Expenses (snacks, meals not covered by program fee, toiletries, etc.) $180
Total $3,310

Airfare: This will depend on your point of departure and if you are booking a round trip ticket. We estimate this as the upper end of the cost of flying to and from Paris from the United States.

Transportation: Although our transportation around Paris and to Lille is included in our program fee, students will need to determine the best way, given their personal schedule, to get to and from the housing on site. Airport transportation costs are not included. This cost includes round trip costs from Monterey to San Francisco and from the Paris airport to the accommodation.
