The Ongoing COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Situation

1. Sponsored outbound international travel from the United States, including study abroad, is suspended for Yale College students for the duration of both the fall 2020 and the spring 2021 terms. Yale University continues to discourage nonessential travel for all students, faculty, and staff.
    
2. Starting with summer 2021, sponsored travel for Yale College students will be governed by the Yale College Travel Policy, but should public health concerns require further restrictions these may be imposed at any time. Proof of vaccination does not override the Travel Policy.
    
3. Yale Summer Session Programs Abroad have been cancelled for summer 2021. However, many of the courses typically taught on these programs will be offered in an online format through Yale Summer Session.
    
4. Yale credit applications opened for Non-Yale Summer Abroad programs and were due April 1, 2021. Applications for Fall 2021 Term or Academic Year 2021-2022 Abroad have a deadline of April 15, 2021. At a minimum, the intended location must be eligible under the Travel Policy, and courses must be offered at least 50% in-person. Students must check directly with their intended program to confirm it will be operating this summer or fall.

Study abroad advisers continue to be available to hold virtual appointments with students via Zoom. To schedule a meeting, please use our online appointment system. Visit the Study Abroad COVID-19 Updates page for the latest information and resources relating to Yale Study Abroad.
