General Travel Info
ESSENTIALS
Be sure you get your passport as soon as you begin your planning so you don't miss the trip of a lifetime! For more info on that, please see our passport and visas page.
CHEAP FLIGHTS
Carroll recommends you begin your flight search with STA Travel. As consolidators, STA can obtain great student and teacher fares.
Student Universe is another great site for discounted student and teacher airfare.
STUDENT ID CARDS
Our office is able to make your ISIC card. Please stop by between 9 AM - 2 PM Monday - Thursday. The cost is $25. For more information, please see the STA Travel website or contact Shannon in St. Charles 14.
The ID cards offer basic accident and travel insurance as well as discounts to tourist destinations. Additional insurance can be purchased and Carroll recommends additional coverage for travel delays and trip cancellation.
EURAIL PASSES
The best way to see Europe is by train. Eurail passes are for non-European residents only. There are many pass options and prices. Check it out--and plan early. They cannot be mailed to a European address.
