I am planning a personal trip over spring break. Do I have to cancel it?

We urge all students, faculty and staff to strongly consider where they are traveling during spring break and the possibility that travel restrictions and quarantines may be required. This includes domestic locations. International travel is strongly discouraged.

For those taking a cruise, please note that the CDC has recently issued specific recommendations regarding cruise travel.

Travelers also need to understand that in accordance with CDC guidelines, those who choose to travel to countries with a CDC level 3 travel advisory for coronavirus must self-quarantine for 14 days and must seek an assessment with a health care provider before returning to campus.

Those traveling from a level 2 country are advised that 14-day self-quarantine is recommended before returning to campus.

If you’re traveling internationally and the CDC advisory level for any country you visited is elevated to level 3 for the coronavirus before you return to the U.S., you must self-quarantine for 14 days before returning to campus.

If the status is elevated to level 2 for coronavirus, self-quarantine is recommended before returning to campus.

Travelers should also note that the possibility exists that a country experiencing an outbreak could suspend travel in and out of the country and could result in travelers being stranded.
