Exclusions & Special Situations

This Travel Expense policy covers University out of town business travel.  It does not cover local transportation (taxis to meetings or other University campuses and offices in the NYC area) and miscellaneous business expenses.  These types of expenses are addressed in the policy on Business Expenses.

This policy is designed to address the majority of expenses that a traveler may incur.  On rare occasions, a traveler may incur an extraordinary expense for which they believe they are entitled to reimbursement.  In cases where a traveler believes that they are entitled for reimbursement for an expense that is not addressed by the current policy or not allowed under current policy they may request an exception.  Exception requests should be infrequent and require the approval of a Dean, Vice president, Associate Dean, or Senior Financial Officer.  See the procedures for detailed instructions for requesting an exception.
