During my nursing program, we were able to travel to Costa Rica. This option replaced 2 required nursing classes. Can I deduct the expenses for this trip such as airfare?

Also, other expenses such as the international service learning fee?

You can probably take the cost of the program in Costa Rica as an educational expense since it replaced two classes.  The travel, unfortunately, not so much.

 

An international service learning fee also sounds like a necessary educational expense.
