Hi everyone! My name is Julian McCreary, and I’ve been given an incredible opportunity to study abroad in the CIS Abroad Summer in Asia: Japan & Korea through Jacksonville University, where I am a full-time Electrical Engineering student! This is a dream come true — a chance to immerse myself in a new culture, gain a global perspective, and grow both academically and personally.

The program will take place from May 2026 to July 2026, and during this time, I’ll be learning new languages, going on exciting excursions, and learning about the culture!

However, studying abroad comes with significant costs, and I need your help to make it happen. Your generous support will go toward:

• Tuition and academic fees: $11,000

- Deposit fee

- Full-time tuition and fees

- Housing

- Airport transfers

- Airfare between Tokyo and Seoul

- Welcome dinner

- City tours

- Excursions

- Various social and cultural activities

- Official transcripts

- Medical and accident insurance

- CIS Abroad support services before, during, and after the program

- Academic advising

- Financial aid counseling

- Assistance with travel arrangements

- Pre-departure orientation

- On-site support

• Flights, transportation in-country, and meals: $3,000

- From Jacksonville, Florida to Tokyo, Japan

- From Seoul, South Korea to Jacksonville, Florida

I appreciate the love and support of each generous donation that you make toward this trip. Every little bit will help my dream come true!
