April 9 - 18, 2018

The ExperienceThe Costa Rica field study is an expedition where student will discover a great deal about the world and about themselves.

Students won’t hear or read about self-sustainability and a green-life style, they will live it.

Students will not only experience what is like to be Costa Rican,

they will embrace it!

Students will better understand the concept of service learning and the

positive impact that it has on them and those who they serve.

After learning, working, and giving to others, students will have ample

opportunities to enjoy themselves and have the time of their lives.
