U-M Travel Warning and Travel Restriction Locations
The University of Michigan regularly monitors global health, safety and security information to set destination risk levels for U-M travelers. There are two risk levels:
- University Travel Warning: Travel is unadvisable due to significant health, safety or security risks.
- University Travel Restriction: U-M related travel is generally prohibited due to extreme health, safety or security risks.
The travel requirements for each of these levels will vary by traveler type (e.g. faculty, staff, graduate students and undergraduate students). View U-M Safety Plan Proposal and Worksheet.
