FCH Business Center Announcements

Driving versus Flying Guidelines:

If driving (personal or rental vehicle) on University Business is requested and/or has been approved as an alternative mode of travel, consider the following guidelines:

· Airfare: If the number of miles to be driven are greater than 1,000 miles one-way or 2,000 miles round trip, then an airfare quote is required for a one-way or round trip ticket. The quote should be attached to the expense report.

· Lodging: If the drive time to reach the destination takes multiple days then there is no reimbursement for lodging en route.

· Meals: Up to three meals for one day of travel en route will be reimbursed. This depends on which meals the traveler is eligible. Meal eligibility depends upon the departure/arrival times of the traveler.

Mileage Calculator:

When entering mileage you must attach the Mileage Calculator found in the lower right-hand side in the gray box. This goes for all mileage.


FCH Business Center Move to Ag Comm Building:
