I want to travel before or after my Columbia-Led, Columbia-Facilitated and/or Recognized International travel is completed. Do I need to include those locations in my School Sponsorship application?

Columbia University plays no role in planning any part of such side trip travel and cannot provide a comprehensive review of any side trip travel identified in a Student Sponsorship application. However, affiliates are encouraged to identify side trip travel and register in ISOS, the University’s emergency assistance provider, so that the University is aware of their location in the event of an emergency and render appropriate support.

Can I add additional destinations to my application once it has been approved?

You may make edits to to your application for School Sponsorship at any point in the process. Please note that the addition of new destinations will place your School Sponsorship application in “review” status until newly added travel has been reviewed, assessed and approved. If destinations added are of a medium, high or extreme risk rating, your application may require additional steps, including, but not limited to, an International SOS Itinerary Review.
