Safety Plans
Safety Plan Guidelines
Students should submit their Safety Plans for review at least six weeks before their anticipated departure date. No travel arrangements should be made until GTRAC has reviewed the Safety Plan and subsequently approved the travel in the event that itineraries need to be revisited or travel must be postponed.
Complete a Safety Plan
Undergraduate students, graduate students, and medical students planning travel to international High Risk Travel destinations must first complete a Safety Plan via TravelSafe, which automatically gets routed to GTRAC to review the student's travel request. GTRAC will then notify students via TravelSafe as to whether they approve or deny the proposed High Risk Travel.
GTRAC will consider a number of factors, including academic necessity and appropriateness of the travel, personal traveler preparedness, and sufficiency of the procedures in place to mitigate the specific health and safety risks (evident in the Safety Plan and including the feasibility of International SOS intervention, as needed).
