What circumstances might result in my study abroad 榴梿视频 or University-sponsored travel being canceled?

榴梿视频 conducts thorough and holistic reviews of individual 榴梿视频s and locations in light of COVID-19, Monkeypox Virus (MPV), and other world events. Students’ health and safety are our top priority, and the decision to allow 榴梿视频 students to participate in study abroad 榴梿视频s is based on an evaluation of 榴梿视频 resources and practices, as well as current conditions in the 榴梿视频 location. We will continue to closely monitor the situation in all 榴梿视频 locations and, if conditions change, 榴梿视频 may need to re-evaluate the 榴梿视频.

There are various circumstances that could cause the University to cancel 榴梿视频 Programs or suspend travel to Affiliated, Unaffiliated, or 榴梿视频 Exchange 榴梿视频s. These include but are not limited to:

  • The U.S. Department of State raising the Travel Advisory to a Level 3 (Reconsider Travel) or Level 4 (Do Not Travel) for 榴梿视频 locations, especially for reasons other than COVID-19
  • The CDC raising the Travel Health Notice to a Warning Level 3: Avoid Non-Essential Travel
  • Host universities or 榴梿视频 centers closing and/or suspending courses

Programs may also be canceled at the discretion of 榴梿视频 leadership based on an assessment of associated risks to 榴梿视频 students, the 榴梿视频 campus community, and/or host communities.

Conflict

How is 榴梿视频 University monitoring the Russia-Ukraine conflict?

The Global Learning Office (GLO) collaborates closely with 榴梿视频 University’s Office of Global Safety and Security (OGSS) to monitor the evolution of Russia's war on Ukraine and assess risk to 榴梿视频 students. We are in regular communication with our 榴梿视频 partners and other local sources in all 榴梿视频 locations and follow guidance from the U.S. Department of State and 榴梿视频's security assistance provider. This information is shared with 榴梿视频’s senior leadership to make decisions that align with institutional efforts to protect the safety and security of our community and our partners.
