One year. No limits. “I didn’t stop smiling during my time in San Diego. From the sunny beaches to the cool cafés and local food trucks - I loved every second of exploring this city. It was easy to meet people on campus, and talking to my friends really helped me gain fluency. We were like a big family, especially when studying for language exams. Earning an internationally accredited certificate opened a lot of doors for me: I am now enrolled at my dream university in America.” - Magali from France, EF San Diego

This covers the cost of administration, communication, greeting services and transportation. The transfer service is offered between 7:00 and 21:00 hours local time on Sundays. If students arrive at any other time, EF can arrange a special transfer at an additional cost of $120. If several students are picked up at the same time certain waiting periods can occur. EF at its own discretion may cancel the transfer service if fewer than three students have booked transfer services to the same destination at the same time. In such cases the student will be informed three days before the start of the course at a minimum and EF will reimburse any moneys paid for such cancelled transfer service. EF cannot be held responsible for delays of pick-up caused by traffic, road construction or accidents.
