The UNW Travel App is not used to track these trips.
Due to Liability Insurance limitations, minors will not be permitted to participate in UNW-sponsored international trips. Also, to help ensure the safety of our staff and students, a Background Check will be required of all non-UNW trip participants prior to securing any travel arrangements. (Be sure to seek their permission in advance.)
Non-UNW Sponsored Trip
If any of the following options below are true then the trip would be considered a Non-UNW Sponsored Trip.
- NO trip expenses will be paid by UNW or funds set aside by UNW for professional development, grants, or a UNW-organized fundraising event
- Participating students will NOT receive UNW credit on their transcript
- UNW is NOT involved in advertising the trip
- UNW employees may be leading the trip, but it is organized by an outside company – and the UNW employees are NOT using their UNW email or letterhead when communicating about the trip
- The trip is NOT endorsed by UNW
- The Trip Leader is NOT under contract by UNW while leading the trip.
Non-UNW Sponsored Trip Information:
Since there may be confusion surrounding who is responsible for trip expenses and liability issues, particularly if a UNW employee is leading a Non-UNW-Sponsored Trip, it is essential that a signed Waiver for Non-UNW-Sponsored Event is received from each participant PRIOR to securing any travel arrangements.
