Some planned activities will be attended by the entire group. There are outdoor cafes, movies, modern dancing, concerts, plays, folklore evenings, and slide lectures on points of interest. Vienna, of course, offers numerous opportunities to participate in its rich cultural life and offers practically every type of entertainment that exists. There will be an excursion to Lower Austria, a province which surrounds Vienna and is famous for its baroque abbeys. Students with less than two years may be accepted with the approval of their campus coordinator.
Graduate students are also eligible to apply.
All students are expected to speak German while participating in the program. Students will be able to make their own travel arrangements or take part in a flight sponsored by the Iowa Regents' Universities. Changes in the economic situation, causing a devaluation of the U.S. dollar, plus unusual price increases in Europe, may result in modifications of the cost of the program. Participants will be informed of such possible changes. Financial Aid Program grants are available to participants who can prove financial need.
