OVERVIEW OF POLICIES &
PROCEDURES FOR INTERNATIONAL
GROUP TRAVEL
The University of Michigan-Flint encourages its faculty and staff

PROGRAM MODELS
International &
Global Studies
(IGS) Program
Faculty may choose to lead a study
abroad program that is sponsored
by IGS. Courses are structured by
the program leader, in
consultation with IGS, and can be
for undergraduates, graduates, or
both. To lead an IGS program so,
faculty are required to submit a
proposal to the IGS Study Abroad
Committee. Faculty who choose to
lead an IGS-sponsored program
receive the added benefits of
having the program associated
with INT credit, which attracts a
larger, more diverse student
population. In addition, selected
scholarships have been designated
for students participating in IGS
programs.
Departmental
Program
Faculty or staff may choose to lead
a discipline-specific program
catered to a particular population
of students. These programs may
have specific academic prerequisites that students must meet
and may only be available to a
specific type of student within a
specific major or discipline.
Courses are structured by the
program leader, and can be for
undergraduates, graduates, or
both. Course content, credit,
required excursions, and
prerequisites are all determined by
the program leader and should be
approved by the program leader's
department and/or school/college.
ROLE OF INTERNATIONAL & GLOBAL
STUDIES (IGS)
The International and Global Studies Program is an interdisciplinary program that aims to
provide students with a framework for focusing on international relations and global trends.
The Program has grown out of the conviction that International and Global Studies merits
its own focus. The purpose of the Program is to enable students to gain a global
perspective of human events and behavior; to appreciate the cultural diversity of the
World; to discern global patterns and processes and to understand their impact on
particular regions
The Program’s courses are intended to provide students with a global perspective at three
levels: chronological, spatial, and thematic. The Program is enriched by study abroad
courses and by the opportunity for students to study at the Japan Center for Michigan
Universities (JCMU) located in Hikone, Japan. Students will earn University of Michigan-Flint
credits by participating in University of Michigan-Flint sponsored study abroad courses.

PROGRAM EXPENSES & PAYMENTS
Program Leaders and their Budget Administrators are encouraged to set up a meeting with FSB and Procurement as
soon as possible to discuss their anticipated financial needs, as well as the administrative accounting guidelines they
will need to follow (before, during, and after travel).
Defining Program Expenses
At the time that you submitted your proposal for the education abroad program,
you also submitted a budget via an excel sheet with items and costs related to
the program expenses. These expenses may include but are not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Airfare
Travel visas
Onsite transportation
Housing
Meals
Site visits & excursions
Speaker’s fees
From your budget, a per-student program fee is determined. An account or
Project/Grant will also be established for your program by you and/or your
department and/or unit business administrator. Student program fees are
deposited into the account specified for your program. This account typically
resides within your department’s or unit’s Chartfields.
PROGRAM EXPENSES & PAYMENTS
Payment Methods
Payments should be done in a secure manner. Please note the following methods of payment authorized by the University of
Michigan:
•
Purchase Order (Check or Wire Transfer)
•
P-Card (university credit card)
•
Non Purchase Order Voucher (Check or Wire Transfer)
•
Cash Advance
•
•
Lump Sum Advance (for abroad group travel and amount is more than $10K)
Cash Advance for personal travel (through Concur)
Please note that wire transfers can take two – four weeks to process. Correct information from the foreign bank is critical! If
any part is incorrect, the wire will be rejected and it may take another 2 – 4 weeks before the department is notified. If any
foreign vendor/host accepts a credit card, it is the recommended method of payment for foreign travel expenses.
Payment methods should be discussed with the Business Administrator prior to making payment arrangements. Determine the
methods of payment accepted by the onsite host or vendor. Then, work closely with your department or unit business
administrator to facilitate the payment with the Procurement & Contract and Financial Services & Budget (FSB) Offices. Both
offices are willing to meet before a scheduled trip to help decide the best payment methods and help process any Lump Sum
or Cash Advances. Please visit http://www.umflint.edu/financialservices/financial-services-budget to learn more.
Faculty should find out about the feasibility of their chosen payment method prior to arrival on site to prevent last minute
concerns (i.e., credit cards may not be accepted at local restaurants, ATM machines may not be readily accessible).
Whenever possible, pre-paying for group activities and facilities like accommodations, meals, event tickets, local
transportation, and materials is highly suggested. This can also help avoid handling many receipts or carrying large
amounts of loose currency.
Concur
The university uses the Concur Travel and Expense Management System for tracking and reconciling employee business travel,
hosting, P-Card (travel and non-travel), reimbursable out-of-pocket business expenses, and cash advances. It can also be
used to make travel arrangements (book airfare, hotel accommodations, car rental, etc.) and is used in conjunction with the
university's designated travel agency, Conlin Travel (855-200-8785 (toll-free) from 8am – 8pm EST. Please visit
http://www.umflint.edu/financialservices/concur to learn more.

PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION:
II. MARKETING & ENROLLMENT STAGE
Marketing
Marketing is probably one of the most important tasks of a program leader. While EAO can help promote your
program, good marketing can really only come from you. This is because you are your program, and it is only
through you that students can see the full range of benefits in considering the study abroad option. Keep in mind
too that there are dozens of other options for students; your connection with them is what will stand out and
entice them to enroll in your specific program.

EAO will send notification via email to the student regarding the decision.
EAO will include the program leader its communications with students.
With rolling admission, an application is
reviewed at the time it is submitted with
a decision provided within days.
With deadline admission, applications are submitted but
not reviewed until a time specified by the program leader.
At that time, the program leader will review the
applications and provide decisions. Be careful that this
does not lead to unintended bias.

enrollment.
Programs that do not meet minimum enrollment
requirements may be cancelled. This is determined in
consultation with the program leader, their unit, and IGS,
if applicable.
The unit may support a program that has not met the
minimum enrollment requirement. Please contact your
Dean’s Office for more information.
PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION:
III. PRE-DEPARTURE PREPARATION STAGE
By January, you should have a confirmed student roster. Maintain regular contact with students whom you have accepted into the
program. This ongoing communication is vital to keep students engaged and excited about participating and will ultimately reduce
the number of students who cancel just prior to departure. Include EAO in your communication with students to ensure that EAO is
updated with program details.
Pre-Departure Student Orientations
Program &
Travel
Orientations
The first orientation should occur shortly after your
roster has been confirmed. This orientation may
cover the general overview, introducing students
and program leaders to one another, inform
students of entry requirements (visa and
immunizations), discuss program start and end
dates, discuss personal travel before or after, let
students know about e flight tickets (and if you are
purchasing tickets as a group), etc.
Conduct up to 6 hours of additional pre-departure
orientations to cover the topics of academic
expectations, health and safety preparation,
insurance, entering the host culture, culture shock,
travel / arrival logistics, the itinerary, housing,
money concerns, necessary documents, packing,
rules, teambuilding, etc.
Arrange for a time when an EAO staff can meet
with the participating students to discuss
requirements students have to complete in M-Flint
WorldLink which includes the Health Form,
Physician’s Clearance Form, Health and Safety
Orientation, etc.
If you have a co-leader, include them in
orientations as much as possible. Also, provide the
Education Abroad Office with your orientation
dates and times.
CountrySpecific
Health &
Safety
Orientation
This orientation will be offered jointly by the
Education Abroad Office. Program leaders will be
provided a PowerPoint presentation which will be
used during the orientation.
The purpose of this orientation is to adequately
inform participants of country-specific health,
safety and security information specific to the
country and region being traveled. The goal is to
prepare participants to be vigilant and be
responsible for personal behavior while they
engage in activities abroad and equip them with
the tools to address emergencies abroad.
This orientation should cover a number of topics
that are specific to the country being traveled.
Topics will include: Culture of the Country and
Code of Conduct/Behavioral Expectations; Laws
and Law Enforcement; Public Transportation;
Health, Safety, and Security Concerns; Culture
Shock; Diversity Abroad.

Program Expenses & Payments
•
It is advised to wait until all student program fees have been collected to initiate payments for
program expenses.
Airfare
•
•
•
•
If included in program fee, it is your responsibility to facilitate the purchase of tickets.
You are encouraged to use Conlin Travel, U-M’s authorized travel agency. There are other
vendors you may use, contact Financial Services & Budget for more information.
Students with unique travel requests: want to travel ahead of the group OR stay behind after
the program has completed. Their ticket can also be bought with the group, but their rates will
likely be different. Let EAO know in advance so they can work with the Cashier’s Office to
collet any additional incurred tickets fees.
You are advised to begin looking at tickets after the student withdrawal deadline (February 19,
2016). We recommend purchasing tickets at least 6 weeks in advance to program start date
and notifying students as soon as you have the flight itinerary.
PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION:
III. PRE-DEPARTURE PREPARATION STAGE
Passport Information
Visa Information
A passport is required for
all travelers, including
student participants as
well as program leaders.
EAO will collect copies of
passport from students to
verify validity, as well as
provide resources for
students who need to
apply for a new passport
or renew a passport.
If you included the visa
fee in your budget, you
are responsible for
facilitating and submitting
the visa application for
students.
EAO can provide visa
support letters, as well as
guidance for nonAmerican citizens who
have may other unique
travel requirements.
Students can take their passport photo pictures
it he International Center. $6 for 2 photos.
PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION:
III. PRE-DEPARTURE PREPARATION STAGE
Course Registration
If you are leading a program that has a credit-bearing course component,
it is your responsibility to ensure that students have registered for the course
prior to departure. EAO will send reminders to students to register for the
course, but it is critical—for yourself and for your unit—that you follow-up
with students and address those who have failed to register for the course.
A student can be withdrawn from a program for failure to register for a
course and will not be permitted to travel with the group.
In some cases, students may register for an alternative course that is not
associated with the program. The student must get permission from you and
the department/unit of the alternate course.
