University Sponsored Student Travel Registry

The University Sponsored Student Travel Policy established a Student Travel Registry to centralize vital information about travel activity to improve campus emergency response capabilities. Faculty and staff who plan to lead or sponsor student travel are encouraged to review this policy carefully.

The Student Travel Registry is an important risk management tool that allows student travel sponsored by SUNY Oneonta or affiliates to be registered at a central location. The registry is a repository for information about each planned travel activity and is designed primarily for use by University Police and others designated to manage emergencies.

Faculty and staff leading an authorized student travel activity (or designee) are required to submit appropriate information to the registry prior to the trip. The registry was designed by SUNY Oneonta ITS with ease of use in mind to minimize workload on those placing submissions.
