Travel to Dangerous Locations

This page links to Web sites where you can find the most recent information on travel to dangerous locations. You may also download the official KU waiver form (necessary for KU faculty, graduate students, and staff who are travelling to locations which have been placed on the US State Department Travel Warning list).

The safety of our students and the quality of the educational experiences are the first priorities of the University of Kansas. Due to concerns for student and faculty safety, the University of Kansas does not sponsor study abroad at locations where a U.S. State Department Travel Warning has been issued. The countries currently on the list can be accessed at the US State Department Current Travel Warnings Page. This list is updated regularly.
