All reimbursement requests are contingent upon OIP travel approval.
Please note that all high or extreme risk destinations (defined below) will require an extra level of

the Elliott School. To facilitate this process, you should ensure that you include as much information
as possible in your risk mitigation plan along with any additional information that can be helpful in
determining your experience in high risk destinations, such as prior travel, in-country support
networks, language abilities, etc.

or rental cars will not be approved until alternate plans are presented.
