Cost Information

In Spring 2002, Washington Seminar students moved to a new facility near Pennsylvania Ave. in Washington, D.C. The cost estimates have been based on past student reports coupled with our cost expectations for the new building. Estimates do not include the cost of air fare to Washington, D.C. Please note that the only required fee for all participants is regular day school tuition. The program and housing deposit fee is not included because it is refundable. All other expenses are controlled by the student.  For more information on housing, check the Washington Seminar housing page.
