Travel funding

The Associated Students of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ administers travel grants for ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ students. Funding is limited and may only be used for costs related to transportation and lodging. Travel awards may not be paid directly to the student; all travel must be arranged through the Travel Customer Service Office or through the student's departmental travel coordinator.

PLEASE NOTE: The maximum amount ASÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ can award in a Student Travel Funding is $1,000.
