- Students who are unable to make it on the travel dates are advised not to take this module.
- Students enrolling for the course will be required to pay the full fee of approximately S$5200 for the cost of boarding, lodging and the airfare by week 6. We will try to reduce the cost, possibly planning the trip without a travel agent.
