Important!  

Some programs will require additional funds on deposit for services such as transportation or accommodations, and participants are liable for costs incurred on their behalf which can not be recovered for them by Tidewater Community College.

Tidewater Community College reserves the right to alter the itinerary of the program or to cancel the program at any time in response to conditions that the responsible officers believe will affect the operation of the program and/or the health and safety of participants.  If Tidewater Community College cancels a program, deposits will be fully refunded.

 

Any student or eligible member of the community may travel on TCC sponsored programs. However, only students meeting specific guidelines may apply for scholarships. Not obtaining a scholarship does not preclude anyone from participating with other TCC students.
