Travel Courses

Emmanuel faculty are committed to sharing their passion for global citizenship and have developed special programs to take learning on location and share their expertise with you. Emmanuel travel courses are a great opportunity for students who may not want to or be able to commit to a semester or longer-term study abroad program. Why not consider spending spring break in Ireland, summer in Greece, or a few weeks serving others on our service-learning course in South Africa?

For fall and spring travel courses, tuition is included in the regular semester tuition, as long as the student is between 12 and 20 credits. The travel fee would be added to the Emmanuel bill for the semester and would be paid directly to Student Financial Services at Emmanuel College. Some travel courses are summer standalone courses, where students are charged summer tuition in addition to the travel fee.
