Travel to areas affected by COVID-19 by students and staff should be avoided or as directed by the national authority.
If travel to areas affected by COVID-19 cannot be avoided, students and staff should follow the current recommendations of the national authorities regarding quarantine.
Faculties should consider minimising the number of activities (e.g. conferences, workshops and lectures) that involve visitors to the Campus for the next 6 months. If these persons do visit the Campus, they should be provided with a copy of these protocols.
Persons undertaking overseas visits should obtain travel cancellation insurance as well as medical insurance coverage.
Regional and international students who wish to return to their home territories due to concerns regarding COVID-19 are permitted to do so. However, students are required to complete a Leave of Absence Form available through their Faculty website or Faculty office. The request must clearly indicate the reason for leave. Students are reminded that on return to Barbados, they may be quarantined by national health authorities.
