Student International Travel Considerations
Non-US Passport Holders: UVA students who are not U.S. passport holders should consult ISSP FAQs and UVA Federal Information to understand how changes to U.S. immigration policy could affect them. This includes guidance on the June 4th Presidential Proclamation restricting entry to the United States for nationals of 19 countries.
Safety Considerations due to Conflict in the Middle East: The U.S. Department of State has issued a Worldwide Caution directing travelers with U.S. affiliations to exercise increased caution worldwide, especially in the Middle East. UVA students should not book flights that travel through a country with a University Travel Restriction, State Department Level 3 or 4, or other restriction. Consult the ISO's Travel Alerts, Notices & Warning page for details.

About UVA Programs
Most UVA programs are designed, developed and directed by UVA faculty. The level of immersion on a UVA program can vary widely: from taking courses exclusively with other UVA students, to taking courses at a partner university with local or other study abroad students. While participants are predominantly from UVA, students from other colleges and universities may participate as well. UVA programs are offered primarily during the summer and January terms, though some (like UVA in Valencia programs) are available during the semester and academic year.
About UVA Partner Programs
UVA partner programs are programs administered by a partner organization and include students from a variety of US universities and colleges. UVA provides input on the academic curriculum and coordinates the application process for UVA students. Partner programs will typically include "in affiliation with" a program in the title.
