Costs: The 2010 fee will be approximately $6,500.  Student Accounts will bill each participant directly for the full costs of the program in the March billing cycle.

The program fee covers transportation costs - international air travel from our gateway city, New York City, group transfer from Heathrow Airport to residence facilities and return, and ground transportation in London (tube/bus pass is provided). The program also covers all residence costs and health insurance.  Additionally, the program provides admission fees that are part of courses.  Participants are responsible for the costs associated with weekend activities that may be organized by the residential staff, performance admission costs that are not part of courses, or personal spending. 

Facilities and Staff: The very impressive academic building is located on Suffolk Street next to the National Gallery just off Trafalgar Square and the residence facilities are located in self-contained flats in two modern adjoining buildings, Kamen House and Minerva Court, rented by Notre Dame from Acorn Educational Services. Details of the accommodation can be found at the LUP website for Kamen House and Minerva Court. Classes in this program, which in 2010 will accommodate approximately 50-55 participants, are taught by many of the same British faculty that participate in the regular academic year program. 

Course of Study: Participants earn six credit hours within a six week time frame.  Many of the courses that are offered fulfill one or more University/College requirements.  There are a number of three credit hour courses to select from.  All are expected to enroll in six credit hours of academic work.
