June 5, 2019: The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) amended the regulations concerning group travel to Cuba. Specifically, the General License authorizing Group People-to-People Educational Travel has been rescinded. 

All Georgetown faculty, staff, and students interested in traveling to Cuba should contact OGS and the Office of General Counsel to receive Georgetown-specific information.
