Students should initially be aware of the following information when signing up for an international experience:
The sponsoring organization’s COVID related protective guidelines for in country travel, work and daily life while overseas. All organizations should provide this information upon your registration. If not, ask them before registering. They should also provide you with their updated cancellation and refund policies. IF not, ask them. Be aware that any trip can be cancelled by the sponsoring organization at any time prior to departure and that you may lose some/all of your payments.
Airlines can also cancel or change your reservation for travel, usually results in a credit for future travel. Be sure you understand their policy on cancellations.
Countries and Airlines may require proof of a negative PCR test prior to entry, usually within 72 hours. If this additional COVID testing is required, it will be the student’s/traveler’s total responsibility to pay for and comply with these requirements.
