(click on subject for a sample letter that you can edit and email or take to your professor)

Professors in these fields at the University of Virginia have been approached about this.  Here's their advice on how to set it up: 

  • Contact an instructor, in an applicable field, at your college several months in advance.:

  • Explain to them that you will be going on this trip and would like help designing an independent study, for credit, around your trip. 

  • Offer to do some background reading about the Dominican Republic and, following your trip, write a paper detailing what you learned as it relates to the subject in which you are pursuing credit.

We will be glad to discuss this matter with your professor if they have any questions or concerns.
