The University Policy Office announces the issuance of the new interim University Policy 3.2, Travel Expenses. This policy replaces the previous policies 3.2, Travel Expenses and 3.3, Travel Expenses for Concur Users. It is sponsored by Executive Vice President and CFO Joanne DeStefano and administered through the Office of the University Controller.
This policy has been rewritten to incorporate practices at Weill Cornell Medicine and, for the Ithaca campus, documents current travel practices that evolved with the implementation of the Concur travel system. It has been fully rewritten and organized with travelers in mind, with simplified language and clarifications on matters such as local and same-day travel; airline upgrades; documentation requirements; group, business, and hosted meals; sponsored travel; and taxable reimbursements.
Procedures for Concur users are available on the Concur and Travel at Cornell website. Weill Cornell Medicine procedures are available on Weill’s intranet referenced in the policy.
For Ithaca-based locations, direct questions about this policy to your business service center or to the Cornell Concur support team, and for Weill campus, to the Tax & Compliance office.
