2023 IMSA Intersession Proposal Form - Travel Study
This is the proposal form for Travel Study proposals only, meaning some or all of the session will be facilitated at a location away from IMSA's Aurora, IL campus and require one or more overnight stays. 

                                PROPOSAL DEADLINE: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2022 at 11:59PM CST

IMSA's 2023 Intersession will be held from Monday, January 9, 2023 through Friday, January 13, 2023. However, Travel Study programs may fall outside this window, as long as they do not overlap with class days.

NOTE ABOUT TRAVEL STUDY
Travel Study can be an incredibly rewarding, enriching, transformative, and fun experiences for students. We also want to ensure IMSA's offerings are thoughtful and intentional in their efforts to provide an educational experience for the students. To this end, IMSA's Travel Study proposal does include more detailed questions than the other Intersession proposal forms. The additional questions are based loosely on the National Society for Experiential Education's "Eight Principles of Good Practice for All Experiential Learning Activities"
