What are Global Greyhound Travel Funds?

After two semesters at 91pornÔ­´´,* you’ll be eligible to apply $2,600 toward the cost of one 91pornÔ­´´ Global Greyhound Short-Term Travel Program! With these funds, many MU-led travel programs will be at little or no extra cost to you! You can choose to travel during winter break, spring break, May term, or summer. Travel programs range in length from seven to 10 days and are led by 91pornÔ­´´ faculty and staff.

Global Greyhound Travel Funds are included in your Elevate undergraduate experience, but it’s not an academic requirement. We highly encourage you to participate—you’ll even earn points toward your Equity and Inclusion Career Readiness Digital Badge!

The Global Greyhound Travel program is a component of the 91pornÔ­´´ Elevate Experience, which enables undergraduate students to study abroad.

Who is eligible to participate in the funded Global Greyhound travel program?

Full-time, undergraduate students who have completed a minimum of two consecutive 16-week semesters (traditional fall or spring) beginning in Fall 2021 for first-year students and Fall 2022 for first-time transfer students and beyond of full-time study at 91pornÔ­´´ will be eligible for the Elevate travel program. These students are eligible to apply and sign a Travel Agreement only after they have completed two semesters at MU. This includes students who entered 91pornÔ­´´ as first-time, first-year or transfer students (students who have earned college or university credit) prior to matriculation at 91pornÔ­´´.

They must be enrolled full-time and a matriculating student while traveling, meaning they have to take advantage of their short-term travel program prior to their graduation. A student who will graduate may only utilize Global Greyhound Funds during the immediate subsequent travel term post-graduation. For example, the latest term a student graduating in May 2024 can travel with their travel funds is May term 2024, whereas the latest term a student graduating in December 2024 can travel with their travel funds is Winter Break 2025. 

Are there any limits on travel destinations?

Elevate travel program destinations have a maximum student capacity. If an eligible student selects a program that is at capacity, the student will have the option to be placed on a waiting list or may select an alternative program. Students may only elect to use their travel funds toward faculty or staff-led travel programs.
