How to participate

"Screw it, let's do it!"
~ Sir Richard Branson

Step One - REGISTER

Fill in the application on our web page. Pay attention to provide the correct data as it is written in yourpassport. This is very important because your data will be used on the official documents. Register asearly as possible to disperse your expenses and be the first one to choose the destination (groups mightget filled out to specific destinations).

Step Two - PAY THE REGISTRATION FEE

After receiving your application you will be sent an invoice to your e-mail which you can pay to the bankaccount shown on the invoice.

Step Three - DOCUMENTS

After paying the registration fee StudentTour will send you the documents necessary to fill in order toapply for the work permit DS-2019. You will also receive a manual on how to fill in the documents.Please be very accurate when filling in data. Now most of the hard work is done! Most of the work canbe done via internet, but StudentTour still needs your original documents before the beginning of thesummer. Post the documents to StudentTour office with address indicated on our web page. Your validpassport will also be needed before the visa interview, but since it is a necessary document, this can besent us in April.

Step Four - PROGRAM FEE AND SEVIS

StudentTour sends you two invoices- Program fee and SEVIS fee. These should be paid in 2 months. Ifyou need any extension, let us know and we will work something out.

Step Five - INTERVIEWS

Usually theinterviews are held in late April or early May. Before the interview you will need to pay the visa fee forthe US Embassy. You can find the sum and account number from the web page of the local US Embassy.Pass the interview to verify that your language skills are sufficient for the Work and Travel program andyou have the right intentions.

Step Six – BOOK YOUR PLANE TICKETS

When you do that is up to you. Usually, the earlier you buy, the cheaper tickets you get. But you can alsoget some good last minute offers right before the summer.
