The same as studying in Danville, plus a $375 deposit (surcharge/emergency fund/carbon offset) due 29 March 2023, and a $25 travel medicine fee which totals $400. Flights to the abroad site are also the responsibility of the student. All pre-departure meetings, including the travel medicine session and the Title IV session are held each semester, these are mandatory. If you have significant financial need, you may also qualify for additional funding from the Center for Global Citizenship.

In addition, during the term that a student spends in Glasgow, he or she pays only Centre tuition (not room-and-board) to the college. For that term, the student uses the room-and-board money that he or she usually pays to Centre to cover housing and meals in Glasgow.

Centre students will live in University of Glasgow housing, which, although not directly on campus, is within walking distance. Students have several rooming options, depending on how much they’d like to spend for housing while in Glasgow. Students will apply for housing online during the fall before their semester in Scotland and should be sure to watch their email inboxes carefully for instructions on applying from UofG.

Official course registration takes place after students arrive in Glasgow, Pre-Registration will happen online while you are still on Centre's Campus. You will work with Centre's registrar and your  for choosing your classes. Students should be flexible in selecting courses and should not assume that a particular class will be offered, or offered at a time that works with the student’s other selected courses. Neither Centre nor the University of Glasgow can guarantee before official enrollment a student’s ability to take any Glasgow course except Scottish Enlightenment.

All students take The Scottish Enlightenment, a course specifically designed for the American students who are part of the Principia program at the University. The course examines the major figures of this important period of Scottish history, with topics ranging from Adam Smith and economics to David Hume and philosophy to Lord Kelvin (William Thomson) and science. Students will also choose two or three other courses from the many options offered at the university.

One of the science courses many Centre students have enjoyed is the functional anatomy course, open only to American students in the Principia program. This human anatomy lecture/lab course enables students to work with plastinated human specimens. The course will be especially beneficial to pre-med students and biology majors, as it would fulfill a medical school prerequisite and/or a four-credit biology elective.

Because the school’s laboratory courses are different than those at Centre, not all science courses will replace courses in Centre’s science curriculum; science students must check with science faculty at Centre to see what courses will earn science credit as substitutions. Students must work with Thomas Manuel when selecting the 70 ETC's that are required to make sure they equal 15 of Centre's hours as you are there during our Centre Term period as well as our spring period. In the fall, those selected will meet with students who studied in Glasgow the previous year to discuss specific classes they took as well as other things. The following Courses have been approved by Centre's Science Dept, however the Registrars Office have many more courses on file that have also been pre-approved.
