<p>My daughter is considering spending a semester in India with the NOLS program. I was wondering if any CC parents have sent their sons or daughters to a NOLS program and if so how it worked out for them. She is an environmentalist, physically healthy but not super fit at present, very close to her family and would have virtually no contact while away for 3 months. She did successfully complete a semester away in high school and has a passion for rock climbing.</p>
<p>Did your daughter attend the NOLS semester in India Fall 09 (currently in session)? My son is on this course right now (Oct. 09). If your daugher is currently attending, I’m sure she is good friends with my son. Most difficult for my wife and I is the lack of commuication while he is there. In this case “no news is good news”.
We are anxious for his return and hear about his venture.</p>
<p>I am not sure what NOLS is but my 18 yr old daughter spent three months in India earlier this year and absolutely loved it. ( she went through Projects Abroad)
she did contact us every once in a while and we could call the director and others as well.</p>
