Cultural Activities and guest speakers

As the capital of North Carolina, Raleigh offers truly hip communities mixed with tradition and government. One of the fastest growing cities in the US, Raleigh is a melting pot of people and ideas! Get plugged into this thriving area for innovation. What’s more, explore activities unique to the US: College Basketball, Duke University, award-winning Raleigh City Farm, and of course, the pink mustache!
And many, many other things you can explore on your own!

Housing, Meals & Transportation

Depending on the time of year, you may live at the ThinkHouse, a co-living space in Raleigh where new entrepreneurs launch scalable companies, or in a beautiful historic home on the same street. Rooms are double or triple occupancy. Cook in your kitchen or eat out at the many restaurants that local foodies love. For lunch, you have access to HQ’s Raleigh’s full kitchen.
You’ll be living in the Boylan Heights – just 15 minutes from the downtown. You can easily walk to class. Explore our US town by bus, bike and your feet!

Cost

The cost for the 4 week program is $4,950 USD. This includes tuition (6 credits), housing, field trips and cultural activities. Travel to Raleigh and meals are not included. A non-refundable deposit is required to secure a spot in program.
Payment plans can be arranged. Travel to the program is not included, but you can book plane tickets through STA Travel, the world’s largest student travel company.

Scholarships

We understand that study abroad is an important investment in your intellectual and personal growth. Sometimes you need a little help, that’s why we offer a limited number of scholarships. Not full scholarships; but partial scholarships. Scholarships are primarily reserved for students from Eastern Europe and developing countries, but it never hurts to ask (it’s in the application). Check with your school, too. Your study abroad, student activities, honors and/or financial aid office may have resources. Many of our students receive assistance from their universities or community. We will even give you a letter to help you out!
