What to know about University-sponsored travel


The International Sponsored Travel Policy constitutes a risk-management policy intended to support the health, safety, and welfare of University staff, faculty, and students. It is intended to facilitate comprehensive health, safety, and risk-management review concerning University-sponsored international and domestic travel. 

Individual Sponsored Student Travel Resources

Since responsible and accountable planning and preparation is an essential component of successful sponsored travel, all students seeking to participate in individual travel sponsored by Fairfield University are required to follow the University's Sponsored Travel Policy.
