Even though the dollar has continued to weaken since they booked those trips, Quade said they haven’t had to make any adjustments to costs.

But they haven’t escaped rising costs entirely.

“We were hit more with fuel surcharges,” he said. “We have to do the best we can with currency exchange rates and hopefully get the best price from airlines.”

Quade said the surcharges were manageable this year because they built in a contingency. But if costs go up more than 6 percent between the time they book the trips and the time they leave, students may have to pay more. Conversely, if prices were to go down more than 6 percent, students would get a refund.

Rising costs haven’t turned students away. More students are signing up for study abroad this year than last year.
