When you submit your travel expense form to Admin, please be sure to note any meals that must be excluded from your travel per diem. Any meals that are included in conference registrations or paid by others (such as a continental breakfast provided by your hotel) must be deducted from meal per diem.

Thank you for your cooperation and patience as we revise our forms and review University policies and practices. Accounting Services is currently reviewing our forms. We should have new forms available on the library website soon.
