Students will leave for London on Friday, March 14 and will return on Sunday, March 23 after a full itinerary of great experiences, including trips to Oxford, the “Enlightenment Room” at the British Museum, as well as a trip on a Double-Decker bus around the town! Three fabulous group dinners are also provided for participants in the program.
