The dormitories are located within the city of Bratislava and are sufficient to meet the students' needs academically, socially and recrea- tionally. A stipend is provided by Comenius University to purchase meals. Fall classes usually begin near the end of September and are completed prior to Christmas. Students are expected to arrive several days before classes for orientation and scheduling. THE COST Students pay SRU tuition, fees, and room and board charges directly to Slippery Rock.
Students are responsible for air fare, personal expenses, medical insurance and passport fees.
Any financial assistance granted by SRU may be used to defray the cost of the program. Travel scholarships are available. It is in the student's best interest to also consider purchasing an international student I.D. card. The I.D. card provides worldwide student discounts, additional medical insurance and emergency evacuation services. If selected, students and their parents will be prepared for the experience in Slovakia.
