Travel Tips

You have received your booking confirmation, what happens next?

1) Travel - We recommend booking your travel as soon as possible to benefit from better rates. If booking for a teenager under 16, please take a look at our Unaccompanied Minors section.


2) Travel Insurance - We recommend getting your travel insurance booked early.


3) EHIC Card - European Health Insurance Card - This card is for EU nationals only. It allows EU nationals to obtain the same level of healthcare as a local resident in a member country when travelling.


4) Visa Applications


5) Placement Test - This depends on the school. Some schools prefer students to complete the placement test prior to their arrival; other schools prefer students to take the placement test on the first morning of their arrival.


6) Parental Form - All parents or guardians of under 18 students must complete a parental form prior to the student' course.


7) What to Pack


8) Brush Up your Skills - Needless to say, to make the most of your language trip abroad it is a good idea (if you have time) to revise what you already know.


9) Mobiles Abroad - It is a good idea to think about how you will stay in touch with your loved ones once abroad.
