Travel Loans

Advances for travel expenses are not available, however, UNO faculty/staff members may be eligible to obtain loans to cover official University business travel expenses through the UNO Alumni Association. The amount of the loan is limited to the expenses approved in advance less the cost of any items prepaid by the University such as airline tickets and registration fees.

The applicant must present a copy of the Travel Authorization form signed by the appropriate chairperson/dean to the UNO Alumni Association. The request for a travel loan should be made at least two working days prior to departure.

Loans must be paid in full no later than 45 days from the return date of the trip. Unspent funds should be returned immediately to UNO Alumni Association upon return. Faculty/staff members must complete the appropriate reimbursement paperwork for expenses. Faculty/staff travel reimbursements are processed as a direct deposit to the employee. The faculty/staff member is responsible for payment to the UNO Alumni Association.

Questions regarding travel loans should be addressed to Brian Schram, UNO Alumni, Business Manager at 402.554.2459.
