Starting Aug. 15, 2021, the university will return to normal approval processes for student international travel.
International travel is currently limited. The university will continue to monitor travel risks and modify guidelines as conditions change.
Undergraduate study abroad program enrollments will not be approved for departures through Aug. 1, 2021 to ensure adequate time for pre-departure preparations.
