Summer in the Mediterranean: Music
Dates, Costs and Deadlines
Our programs are famously comprehensive and are an excellent value.
Though many of our programs incorporate some of the most extensive
travel and excursions of any study abroad programs, our fees are often
similar to or lower than the fees of programs that just provide tuition
and housing.

Airfare to Cyprus
Airfare from the
United States (New York) to Cyprus can range between $850 and $1,300,
depending on the season and how far in advance the ticket was
purchased. Connecting flights from other cities in the United States
can add between $0 and $400 to this cost. We encourage students to
finalize travel arrangements as early as possible to avoid high
airfares.
Airport PickupGLS
will arrange one or more bus pickups on the arrival date(s) at
designated times. Students who arrive to Larnaca before the bus pickup
time(s) can choose to wait for the bus to take them to Nicosia free of
charge. All enrolled students will receive the bus pickup information a
few months prior to the start of the program.
If students do
not make the bus pickup, there are alternative means of transport from
Larnaca to Nicosia (not free of charge), such as taxis or an airport
shuttle. Larnaca airport
is located about one hour by car from the program base in Nicosia.
