Travel Exemption Request

Princeton University will not fund or sponsor undergraduate student travel to countries on the U.S. State Department Warning List. Students who have a compelling educational reason to travel to such countries may submit a request for consideration for an individual exemption. The request should include the following:

  • A description of the purpose of the travel and its unique educational benefits
  • A letter of support from the student's advisor
  • A detailed itinerary, including proposed modes of travel and housing arrangements

The request should be submitted to the co-chairs of the Travel Advisory Committee, Nancy Kanach, Senior Associate Dean of the College and Amy Campbell, Director, Campus Life Initiatives. Following submission of the request, the student traveler and/or faculty adviser should make an appointment with either Nancy Kanach or Amy Campbell to discuss the request and to determine whether there is a need for any other information in order to  proceed with the exemption review.

University commitments, including undergraduate student travel,  may not be made prior to completion of the consideration and approval process.
