International study abroad programs at BYU are now canceled for the upcoming Summer Term because of COVID-19 travel restrictions.
International Study Programs director Lynn Elliott said while U.S. government travel limitations have some effect on the decision to cancel, “the bigger challenge is many of the places we send our study abroads to aren’t keen on having large groups of Americans come in right now.”
Elliott said they decided to cancel the summer programs because it is unknown when these travel restrictions in different countries will be lifted. “We felt like now was a better time to cancel. We couldn’t see how it could get better enough, soon enough that it would justify waiting.”
