6 Key Qs 4 U

There's a handful of organisations out there who claim to offer you the same summer camp experience that you'll get with Camp America – but we're here to tell you that this is simply not the case! We've been fine-tuning our programme for 43 years and strongly believe that Camp America offer an unrivalled experience, on virtually every level. The decision is ultimately yours – but before you choose what's right for you, please consider our '6 key Qs 4 U'...

View all key questions

Flights

Is your flight included in the price you’re paying to get to camp?

Consider this:

  • Flights to the US are expensive (even more so when not booked well in-advance or you’re not flying into New York)
  • Flights have to be paid for up-front
  • Arranging your own travel means you’ll have internal travel/accommodation costs; getting yourself to camp from your arrival airport
  • Arranging your own transport may mean that you’ll need to take out a separate Travel Insurance policy against any possible delays/cancellations e.g. Volcanic Ash Clouds/Hurricanes (which happen virtually every year)

With Camp America, you DON'T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS...

We take care of your flight - meaning you don't need travel insurance. Your transport/accommodation required to get to camp is included in our fee.
 

Visas

Is the company a ‘designated visa sponsor'?

Consider this:

  • Who is the 3rd party that’s sponsoring your visa? Are they reputable?
  • Do you have their contact details should anything go wrong with your visa?
  • Are there specific conditions attached to your visa that you need to follow to ensure you don’t break the visa conditions?
     

With Camp America, you DON'T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS...

We're your visa sponsor and we're designated by the US Government.
 

Medical Insurance

Are you FULLY covered for any potential mishaps?

Consider this:

  • Who is actually providing your medical care?
  • Are you covered for trips to the Emergency Room - even when you are not hospitalised?
  • Do you have to pay a hefty excess to make a medical claim?
  • Does the policy cover you when you’re travelling, after camp?
     

With Camp America, you DON'T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS...

Our medical insurance is specifically designed and it covers you for trips to the ER, even when you’re not hospitalised – with a fixed, affordable excess. Importantly, our policy also covers you for after camp travel.

Hidden Fees

Are the programme fees completely up-front?

Consider this:

  • Do you have to pay any hidden fees - such as a $135 Visa Issuance/SEVIS fee?
  • Will you be charged $50 to replace your visa paperwork - should you need to change your flight date, passport number or your placement details change?
  • How much is it going to cost you additionally to get from the airport to your camp?
     

With Camp America, you DON'T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS...

Camp America don't have any hidden fees - NONE! Your visa/SEVIS fees are included in our programme fee and we won't charge you anything to amend your documentation, if need be.

Placement

Do you have a realistic chance of placement?

Consider this:

  • How many people did your sponsor place last year?
  • How many do they project to place this year?
  • How many camps do they actually work with?
  • Are your hopes being built up – only for you to be let down weeks/days before the summer begins?
     

With Camp America, you DON'T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS...

We work with over 1000 different camps and each year we send 7500+ to camp - so you’re unlikely to be disappointed!

Customer Service

Will anyone pick up the phone to you if you need help?

Consider this:

  • Do you keep going through to voicemail?
  • Is no one calling you back?
  • Are you being asked to contact someone’s mobile phone?
  • Are your emails being ignored?
  • If you can’t get through to the company now, how confident are you of getting hold of someone during the summer; taking into consideration the time difference?

With Camp America, you DON'T HAVE TO CONSIDER ANY OF THIS...

Our customer service is unrivalled and we're always by the phone, waiting to help. We've been doing this for 43 years and there's nothing we haven't dealt with - so if anything goes wrong then you're in the very best hands and we're always waiting by the telephone!
