Foreign Currency Guarantee
AmeriSpan lists
all program prices in one currency (US dollars) so our clients can easily
compare similar programs in different countries. Each year, we set our US
dollar prices based on the average currency exchange rate compared with the US
dollar. Because the US Dollar exchange rate has had unusually high
fluctuations, we have the "AmeriSpan's Foreign Currency Guarantee". This
guarantee applies to our language programs in Europe and Asia.
For details: Foreign
Currency Guarantee.

website or blog.
This special is open to anyone whether or not you have used AmeriSpan in the past. It doesn't matter what
study abroad program (language, volunteer, teen study
abroad, college study abroad etc. or where you studied. The article simply needs to mention AmeriSpan with our website,
email or telephone number as a source for additional information somewhere. Self-serving? Well, you can list all of our competitors and any other sources that you know of and you will still receive either
