No passport or visa is required for Osgood as it is a domestic trip.

Each student must carry their driver's license for identification to fly (or a passport if they do not have a US driver's license).

Each country’s immunization and medication requirements and recommendations are based on Travelers’ Health from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the recommendations of our contacts. These requirements and recommendations are subject to change based on outbreaks, government mandates, etc.  

Students are personally responsible for making medical decisions regarding vaccinations and are encouraged to evaluate their own needs and risks.

We monitor outbreak situations, and vaccine requirements and recommendations could change at any time based on what is happening in the world.
