For Students

Independent Student Travel

INDEPENDENT STUDENT TRAVEL REGISTRATION PROCESS

Students participating independently in USF-related international activities should begin registration 6–8 weeks before departure. Activities may include conferences, research, internships, academic site visits, or qualifying volunteer experiences. 

Complete the Independent Student Travel Registration application unless you meet the eligibility requirements for Express Travel Registration. 

When students complete their application, they will be enrolled in the Global Travel Pre-Departure Orientation in CANVAS. Once committed to their program they will be enrolled in Global Health and Security Insurance.

EXPRESS TRAVEL REGISTRATION

Express Travel Registration is a streamlined option for eligible independent student travelers. Qualifying activities include conferences or symposiums, approved international activities lasting less than 14 days, and international students returning to their home countries for academic activities. Eligible home-country academic travel may qualify regardless of duration. 

Express applicants must also meet the current good-health and medical-review waiver requirement. Students participating in an organized SRT group must use their group-specific registration link rather than Independent or Express registration.
