Student organizations planning to travel must submit a Travel Request to the office of Student Involvement. Travel requests must be submitted using the following guidelines for consideration:

• No later than 5 days prior to departure for travel in-state
• No later than 10 days prior to departure for travel out of state
• No later than 3 weeks prior to departure for foreign travel

When the Travel Pre-Approval Form has been reviewed by the office of Student Involvement your organization will receive notification of travel approval/disapproval. Email notification of travel status will be sent to trip leader(s), your advisor and Student Center Accounting. The travel notification will include a status of required travel documents, along with a timeline for their submission. Absolutely no financial activities can occur until your organization has received travel approval. Once you have received approval for your travel, trip leaders should coordinate with the organization treasurer and Student Center Accounting to discuss the financial aspects of the trip. There are several options for processing travel expense including the use of purchase orders, check requests, cash advances and campus travel cards. Student Center Accounting will determine the most appropriate method for your trip based on a number of factors. Travel cards require an application period of 30 days so plan accordingly.

Please visit the Student Travel Page to continue with the Pre-Approval process.
