| For
food and basics, I would say about $250 - $300 minimum. The first
week I ate out all the time. Then finally bought groceries (which
I highly recommend). Nicole Petty, 2002 |
If
you can, bring a lot. This is not only a school program but also a
trip. It stinks having $10 in your pocket for weekend nightlife. Don't
plan what you can do by money, have enough to not worry. Bring an
extra hundred, it helps a lot! Amy Coghill, 2001 |

I think
I got by spending around $300. To be on the safe side, bring $400.
I brought $300 in traveler's checks and a credit card, it worked
really well. Kate Maier, 2000

$500
min. for basics. I recommend investing in an ATM and VISA card before
hand. Carrie Fox, 2000 |
| Bring
at least $500 if you want to be able to enjoy yourself. Nick Berger,

$400
Cristy Hamilton, 2001 |
| $300
to $350 for food and same for entertainment! Jeannette Lavery, 1999

$200,
minimum. This will increase in Canadian money, but you should bring
a little extra for souvenirs and food. Shayla Bailey, 2001 |
| I
would bring at least $350. Jennifer Hanson, 2001 |
I
would recommend at least $400 spending money or about $300 and a credit
card. Todd Wilson, 2001 |
| Money
is necessary. I had a VISA card, which helps a lot for food. Good
rates and allowed me not to have to carry a lot of money around. I
spent around $400 on food and activities, plus a few souvenirs in
there . . . stamps are expensive! Beth Cox, 2002 |

| $450
is a comfortable minimum. Go grocery shopping - it saves money! Justina
Cox, 2000 |
I
think I spent about $700. That includes buying some clothes for myself,
souvenirs for my family and friends, sending postcards, buying food
and other little things. Kristine Szafranski, 2001 |
