My name is Jimmy Darling and I am currently in the second year architecture program in the College of Architecture and Planning at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. This coming summer, I am hoping to go on a two week architecture field study to Japan. As many of you know, Japan is very expensive, and because of this, it has deterred many students from traveling to Japan. This trip will be ground breaking for Ball State because no group has ever completed a field study to Japan in the university’s history.

So, I was hoping that somebody could tell me where and how I, and my peers that are going on the trip also, could get scholarship and grant opportunities to help pay for this expensive trip? Or if we could find somebody that would be willing to sponsor an individual, a couple students, or even the group would be awesome!

For more information about the trip, HERE is theblog that has been created to document our experience.
