Requirements – Visas or ESTA
All students must hold a valid passport with at least 6 months left on it. You are also required to complete the ESTA programme or obtain a visa in order to travel to the USA. I urge all students to have this process completed by December 21st 2013.The details of the ESTA programme can be found by visiting:https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/esta.htmlIf you require a visa you must visit the US Embassy website at:http://london.usembassy.gov/nonimmigrant-visas.html
Please provide evidence of your ESTA to Mr Nijjer.
Food Students will be given an allowance of
approximate $75 per day to spend on breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and drinks. Any remaining money will be the students to spend as they wish (within reason)
Food locations will be provided later.Please let us know of any special dietary
requirements.
Travel - Transfers to and from New York JFK to the
hotel are included - Students are expected to arrange their own
transport to the airport and the return. The cost of a return coach journey is ??????
- Whilst in New York we will be travelling via public transport, using a prepaid Metrocard
Spending money
I would recommend that each student has between £150 and £200 as spending money, depending on what they will be spending money on.
The figure quoted above is only a recommendation.
If your child is likely to spend money on clothing please budget for this and remember we have a weight limit on luggage!
