Can I still
enroll for Geology 30193 after the add/drop date?
Yes! An extension to the add date has been made for enrolling
in GEOL 30193.
Can I take the
seminar course without the lab (the trip to Costa Rica or Scotland)?
No. You must sign up for either the Costa Rica lab or
the Scotland lab when enrolling in this course.
How much will
the lab trip cost me?
That depends. The Costa Rica trip will cost approximately
$1,400, which includes airfare, room, board, travel and lab expenses.
The cost for the Scotland trip will depend on whether or not you are also
enrolling for TCU in Scotland (a summer abroad program). Students on the
TCU in Scotland trip can extend their stay for the GEOL 30193 lab experience,
so their cost will be less than the total cost for students not already
in Scotland.
Can I choose
the Scotland lab if I am not enrolling for TCU in Scotland?
Yes!
