About this Program
The Writers’ Workshop in Ireland asks you to become a traveler and to learn how to write about your travels. While we explore the rich country and culture of Ireland, we will study various writing techniques and experiment with different kinds of writing (travel notebooks, anecdotes, stories, poems, letters, and the like) to capture our experiences. We will consider the work of writers notable for their engagement with the places we visit. These writers will act as our guides to various locales within Ireland, the history that informs these places, and the process by which they transform into memorable literary locales. We will learn how to use our writing to locate ourselves in our journeys and share our journeys with others. In the process, we will learn about the nature of travel generally—as an experience, as a theme, and as an inspiration for a host of other considerations, including further travel.

Housing at Seattle University
Moving can be both costly and stressful, but careful planning can help minimize both. Start by creating a housing plan for before and after your study abroad experience to avoid the pressure of continuing to pay for rent at home. Program fees typically cover housing abroad, so if you expect to incur additional domestic rent expenses, be sure to include these in your budget. If possible, consider staying with family or friends temporarily before you depart or when you return to save on costs.
Housing Residence Life
Education Abroad typically recommends considering Seattle University on-campus housing for when students return from their programs, as Housing Residence Life staff are able to support students in securing housing, while adhering to student preferenceas best as they can.
