We usually find that this gives the students a well needed chance to stretch their legs, see a bit of Europe and refocus their thoughts and studies for the remainder of the term! If you are intending to visit, please check and reconfirm with us as dates can change.

Reservations
It is always best to make reservations in advance, as our space is limited. To request a new reservation, please send an email to swiss@labri.org with the following information: Name, Gender, Dates of Attendance, Phone Number, Allergies, as well as some information about yourself and why you would like to come.
If your reservation is accepted and your plans change and you have to cancel, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can make space available for others who may want to come. We also ask that you reconfirm your reservation with us at least two weeks prior to your arrival date. This will help us insure that spaces don't go empty when we have a waiting list of people. Due to Swiss law we are not allowed to accept anyone under 18 years of age.
As of January 2, 2007 the student fees are as follows:
45 Swiss francs per night for stays from 2 nights to 6 weeks
40 Sfr for stays of 6 weeks and over.
Stays of less than 2 nights will not normally be possible.
---------------------------------------------------------
Student fees may be paid in any currency at the going rate of exchange (please email John at swiss@labri.org for the rate if you would like to pay via paypal). Payment may be made in the form of cash, check, travelers check, or credit card (via paypal). For students who plan to pay via paypal, we would encourage you to set up your account prior to leaving home. Please insure that you have all of the information necessary for paying your student fees. For detailed instructions on paying via paypal, please click here. Please note: All paypal payments should be made in US dollars and include a 3% service fee. Also, some students choose to use their credit/debit cards to withdraw cash at the bank in the nearby village of Villars .
Please be aware that L’Abri operates financially on a month by month basis. Therefore, whether you are coming for a longer or shorter time, you will need to pay your student fees within the first week of your arrival.
If someone other than (you) the student will be making payment on their behalf (for example, parents), please arrive with all of the necessary arrangements in place in order that student fees can be taken care of in a responsible and timely manner.
All students, regardless of your length of time with us, may pay their fees in advance of coming and we would strongly encourage you to consider this payment option. Should you have to cancel, we will refund your fees, minus a small admininstrative charge of fifty dollars.
If
you are coming from another country, we strongly advise you to have
adequate medical/accident insurance as L'Abri cannot be responsible
for any costs arising from illness or hospitalization.
