Student Travel Policies
Student travel policies vary depending on your trip length and purpose and the school in which you’re enrolled.
Resources
GW supports and encourages international study, work and research. To ensure a positive experience, the university maintains sound practices and policies for GW-sponsored travel, work, study and residence outside of the United States. These practices and policies help us address health and safety concerns abroad, such as access to medical care and emergency evacuation services.
Faculty & Staff Travel Policies
If you’re traveling with students or alone, you’ll need to familiarize yourself with GW’s faculty and staff travel policies.
Business & Operations Policies
GW offers guidelines and policies to help travelers navigate university regulations and U.S. laws that govern international business and research.
Health and Safety
GW partners with GeoBlue to provide university travelers with health and safety assistance as well as evacuation services. All GW travelers must print out an emergency contact card (PDF), which provides Geoblue’s emergency contact information. This card must be carried at all times while abroad.
