Dear students, faculty, and staff,
The U.S. State Department issued a “do not travel” to China advisory Thursday, Jan. 30, related to the novel coronavirus.
The advisory states that travelers should be prepared for travel restrictions to be put into effect with little or no advance notice and that commercial carriers have reduced or suspended routes to and from mainland China.

Dear students, faculty, and staff,
Due to the Centers for Disease Control and State Department recommendations and program cancelations, all university-related travel to China is under a UM travel restriction until further notice.
The CDC recently classified China as a level 3 warning destination, recommending that all individuals avoid nonessential travel to the country. The U.S. Department of State has also issued a Level 3 Alert: Reconsider Travel to China.
