Administrative Memorandum 35 - Travel Policies

To maintain control and accountability in regards to travel expenses associated with official University business.

The University will reimburse individuals who incur ordinary and necessary business travel expenses.

It is the responsibility of departmental budget managers to assure reimbursements are reasonable and conform to University policies.

Travel expenses are to be charged to employee's personal credit card or University credit card, if available. A travel advance can be issued for $100.00 or more. Requests should be submitted two weeks prior to departure date in order to ensure payment in the University's weekly check run. Anyone with an outstanding advance will not be issued any further advances.
A travel expense record must be completed following the trip. Expenses will not be reimbursed without adequate receipts.
It is the University's intent that a traveler should neither lose nor gain financially or otherwise, as a result of business travel.
A "Travel Policies and Procedures Manual" is available by contacting the Purchasing Agent.
