Update Regarding Travel Study Trips and Coronavirus (COV-19):
Please note that all upcoming travel programs are aspirational unless/until the University updates its guidance and allows for the resumption of in-person alumni events.
We are thrilled that you're thinking about your next adventure and hope everyone will save the dates to travel with alumni and friends as soon as we are able to safely resume operating alumni travel programs. A roster of tentative trips for 2022 is in progress and we are eager to help the alumni community to get out and explore soon. Listings below will be updated with more information on upcoming tours as they are confirmed and trips details are finalized.
While we remain hopeful that trips will resume operating again soon, decisions are being made about each upcoming trip in order of departure and based upon the most recent information available from the University, health and government officials. We anticipate the rescheduling of many trips and will update the online calendar as changes are made. The health and safety of our alumni travelers and their guests is of the utmost importance and we are coordinating with our travel partners to evaluate each of our upcoming travel programs accordingly.
Please contact the Alumni Travel Study Program office at travelstudy@columbia.edu with any questions or for additional assistance with your upcoming Alumni Travel Study Program plans. We are here to help provide you with all available information. Brochures, rates and itineraries will be posted as soon as we are able to safely resume travel and trip details are finalized.
The Alumni Travel Study Program offers specially curated travel opportunities across the globe. From epic adventures to destinations like Antarctica, river and ocean cruises, and small group experiential programs exploring local food, culture, and history, these programs enable alumni to combine learning and pleasure. The travel study experience is often enriched by the participation of Columbia faculty, peer institution lecturers, marquee speakers, and local experts. Friends and family are always welcome to join you.
