  • State Department Issues Global Health Advisory

    March 31, 2020

    The United States Department of State has issued a Level 4 Do Not Travel Global Health Advisory due to the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions on travel. While many countries have a lower level of infection than the United States, widespread government restrictions for travel and the elimination of commercial flights makes it increasingly difficult for travelers to return to the United States. All known Drexel travelers have been strongly encouraged to return to their homes or the United States. 

  • International Travel Ban Instituted

    March 10, 2020

    Due to the growing number of cases of COVID-19 worldwide and concerns about the viability of international travel and its impact on public health, Drexel has made the very difficult decision to cancel all spring term international travel. This includes international co-op placements, all study abroad programs for the spring term, all student organization international travel and faculty and staff international travel. Students who are currently abroad on Drexel-affiliated programs will be permitted to stay to complete their programs. Questions about the international travel ban should be directed to the Provost's Office. Please visit the University's website dedicated to Coronavirus for more information.

    March 02, 2020

    Following guidance from the Centers for Disease Control the University is reviewing carefully the locations of all student international programs, as Drexel has been doing since the beginning of the outbreak. This includes following the specific country-level guidance from the CDC and State Department Advisories levels for individual countries where we may have or anticipate having travelers.
