TRAVELER

Each UC campus should follow its own local travel reimbursement policies.  The traveler should request approvals for travel, complete a projected expenses form, and work with their local business office to book and pay for the transport.  After travel has been completed, the traveler should request reimbursement through their local UC campus using its policies and procedures.  The local UC campus will reimburse the traveler for their expenses.
