Common Forms for Travel, Reimbursement, and other things.
Travel Forms
Travel Authorization Form All travel taken as a university employee or student requires the submission of a Travel Authorization form. A Travel Authorization is a tool used to pre-authorize employee travel and related expenses outside a 100-mile radius of an official work station. Your TA MUST INCLUDE AN ITINERARY and please be as descriptive as possible in the purpose field. If you are unsure on how to submit a Travel Authorization Form, use the guide attached below.
No Cost Travel still requires a TA to be submitted. In this case, when entering expenses, choose ‘Paid by Third Party’.
