Goucher College Travel Portal

Goucher College employees are encouraged to use the Goucher College Travel Portal to plan for their next trip and are required to use their college-issued credit card for booking all business-related travel. The portal also serves the needs of parents, students, alumnae/i, and guests of the college who would like to arrange a visit to Goucher College or to the Baltimore area.

Though this is not a discount travel website, there are several benefits in using the portal, including:

  • Double frequent-flyer points on JetBlue airlines
  • One-rate-per-vehicle class rate nationwide with Enterprise Rent-A-Car and National Car Rental
  • Reduced travel agency ticketing fees
