Additional Food, Local Transportation, and Spending Money  
A minimum of $2,000 is recommended for out-of-pocket expenses, which includes $1,000 for meals, and $1,000 for extra transportation and spending money. The amount you budget depends on the value of the dollar in relation to the Japanese Yen, your resources, and your lifestyle (i.e. frequency of dining out, travel plans on weekends, etc). The program will cover program-related local transportation and all group activities, but you will be responsible for your transportation to and from Osaka. 

Airfare  
Round-trip transportation from Boston to Osaka is estimated at $1,900. This amount will be reported to the Financial Aid Office. This Round-Trip Transportation estimate includes transportation to and from campus to Boston ($400 estimate) and a round-trip flight with no change fee ($1,500 estimate). 

Notes: Amounts listed for individual budget items are the best estimates available at this time.
