Traveling on a Budget

Traveling is undoubtedly a huge part of the study abroad experience. Luckily, traveling in and around the UK and Europe is cheaper than it is in the United States. SU London provides school-sponsored overnight field trips, student travel packages and school-sponsored one day field trips. Keep an eye out for what is being offered by the school – we are always looking out for great deals for you all. However, you will still want to plan your own independent travel. Below are some tips on how to stretch out the value for a trip.

When to travel
