doesn't matter if you get credits because chances are, you will only be able to use 3 of those credits towards graduating.

good luck. i have a friend who did that trip, he said as exciting and new and crazy as it was, it was miserable. it rained every day and was not pleasant. a good friend of mine went to patagonia, and ended up being stranded for 4 days without food before their boat could come pick them up due to bad weather. i hope you are luckier

Along these lines, I just found out I got into the Outdoor Educators course for fall semester. Anyone else doing it?
