Money for Honors International Academic Trip?

Paying for College
1

<p>I’m an undergrad and my honors program has announced that the international trip for 2010-2011 will be to China. From what I’ve heard from other honors students, after subsidies, these trips still run $1500-2500. I’m non-traditional part time and do not have any financial interaction with my parents. I recieve Pell, however the refunds will cover only a few hundred dollars. </p>

<p>Are there any other grants or scholarships for short term academic travel, that anyone knows of?</p>

<p>Fastweb doesn’t have anything that applies and I searched the CC threads and came up empty.</p>

<p>You need to go to your college/university financial aid office and ask them about this one. They may be able to help you.</p>

<p>Do you belong to a sorority or fraternity? They often extend financial services like this, particularly if they are affiliated with the honors program in anyway. Alternatively, yo ucould seek an installment plan and then use a part-time job to pay for the trip in installments.</p>
