Travel Advance Form

Request a cash advance for a Cornell business trip.

Because direct payment or corporate card is available for most travel expenses, travel advances will be limited to those expenses for which a traveler is expected to endure a hardship for out-of-pocket expenses while on travel, and expenses that could not have been paid for by direct payment or a Cornell corporate card. 

Advances are limited to faculty, staff members, and students. Expenses related to visitors should be charged directly to operating accounts.
