Do you intend to travel with the DSA?

Yes

Unsure

Would you prefer to travel locally rather than internationally? (Canada/Ontario)

Yes

No preference

For the 2026 DSA we are considering trips to the following destinations: Albania, China, Italy, and The United States. If they are all priced similarly, are you willing and able to travel to any of these locations? (Please note the destinations have not been finalized and are subject to change)

Yes to all

Yes to one or some

No to all

Please explain your response

Do you anticipate any barriers to travelling?

Yes

Barriers may include travel visa requirements, financial constraints, etc.

Please describe the barrier(s) to travel

If there are financial barriers to your travel, but funding can be available, would your preference be for:

A fully funded regional or inter-provincial 8-day trip that would be fully funded by the School (you would only be responsible for food).

A partially funded international trip that would cost you at least $1500 + food after School funding

No preference, both would be of equal interest

No preference, neither would be an option

If we were to require a $200 deposit to confirm your interest, could you provide the deposit by the end of April 2025?

Yes

I do not plan to travel

Do you understand that you are responsible for your own travel documents (including passport and/or visa) and for your own health and safety while travelling?

Yes

No, I require an information session to outline these requirements

I do not plan to travel

Please let us know if you have any comments or concerns regading the DSA. All feedback is welcome.
