immersion Immersion Immersion

Preliminary
Requirements
 Pre-Immersion

Once you have applied and been selected for an immersion trip, you
will meet with your immersion group 4 times a week. Participants
commit to attending all of these meetings. During these meetings, the
group will get to know one another, you will learn more about the
community you will be visiting, the current issues facing the
community, history, and culture, and you will be given details on
travel, packing lists, etc.

 The Immersion

On your immersion you will be accompanied by a student

Immersion Facilitator and NSTP Faculty. Your immersion group will
be hosted by a local organization that takes care of the logistics
during your stay. Each immersion varies in terms of what activities
you will embark, be open and flexible. You will have the opportunity
to immerse in the local community and issues, as well as connect
with the other immersion participants and reflect on the experience.

 Post Immersion

While the community immersion experience has ended, the full

experience is a journey that never truly ends. We see the immersion
experience itself as just one aspect, and more as a starting point then
the end goal. In light of this, participants commit to meeting at least
10 meetings in the community.
