Last year, students went to New York, Los Angeles, and Florida on their Free weekends! July 4 is a national holiday in the United States and travel is very popular on that weekend; please keep this in mind if you would like to travel. Your travel and activities for this weekend are not included in your program. You will be responsible for your own travel, accommodations, and activity costs.
