That would have been a good question to include! Our students generally pay travel costs though last year we were able to subsidize one trip and pay the hotel. Plus our school pays for trips to Worlds (but not off the wait list). Another good one would be the same question for mentors. We try to pay for mentor travel since they are giving up vacation days already.
