How Much Money to Bring?
Several of you have asked how much spending money you should bring on the program to cover personal items, gifts, shopping, etc. This depends largely on your own spending habits—some PVI participants spend as much as $1,000 during a semester in India, while others barely spend $100. A general guideline would be to consider bringing around $500. Your program directors will be calling you soon to check in and answer any final questions you may have and will be glad to discuss this issue in more detail with you.
Happy New Year!
