Trip Cancellation and Interruption Insurance
Generally, the University does not reimburse travelers for trip cancelation insurance. In special circumstances, it may be reasonable based on the high cost of an airline ticket. Before purchasing such a ticket, the traveler should determine if it makes more sense to purchase a refundable ticket. Proper documentation must be provided.
Emergency Travel Assistance Program
The University maintains an Emergency Evacuation and Travel Assistance program that provides medical, personal safety and travel-related assistance services if an emergency arises while traveling domestically or internationally. Domestic coverage is included for travel 100 miles or more from home while on University business, and coverage applies to all international travel for business or pleasure. For more information, contact the Office of Risk Management.
Coverage for Personal Effects
Loss of or damage to personal belongings of the traveler are not covered by the University insurance.
