Participants will also spend three days in Amsterdam as they follow the developments of the Holocaust, see Anne Frank's diaries, tour the Joods Museum, and visit the national memorial to the victims of the Holocaust.
The program fees include up to six (6) credits (easily transferable to any accredited college or university) and include all in-country expenses, including transportation, food, lodging, entrance fees (when applicable) and more. Only airfare and personal expenses are extra.
