Travel/Cash Advance
Cash advances are for travel-related expenditures, sports team event and miscellaneous expenses for special event/programs. Cash advances should be requested only when all other methods for obtaining goods/services have been exhausted and should be kept at a minimum level.
Advances must be based on a reasonable estimate of the anticipated expenses, and must be drawn within a reasonable period of time before the expenses are likely to be incurred. The Advance payment can be requested in cash or check/ACH. All requests should be submitted to the Accounts Payable Department of the Controller's Office within 10 days prior to the travel and/or event date.
