Travel Costs

Our graduate programmes require travel that may include visits to galleries, special collections, art fairs and art-related events including destinations abroad. Travel costs are borne by the student and vary from programme to programme. So that the Institute can buy tickets and make reservations in advance, travel costs for each academic programme are calculated and charged for the full academic year during registration for the first semester starting in September. If currency fluctuations or other changes result in the actual cost of travel exceeding the fee collected, the institute will absorb the additional expense. If the cost of travel is less than the fee collected, the difference will be refunded at the end of the academic year.
