School of Social Welfare
Request for Travel Authorization
Travel authorized for student development to graduate students who have been accepted to present their research or the disciplinary equivalent at a national or regional meeting of a learned or professional society. The student should apply first to
Graduate Studies for funding. For supplemental funds from the School, fill out the form below, which will automatically be sent to Elenor Crangle at
ecrangle@ku.edu to cover expenses.The School may be able to assist in payment for lodging, registration and airfare (not meals, or other expenses) for up to two conferences. A $2,000.00 maximum payout may be possible per student for travel. Additional expenses over the limit will be paid by the student. In each fiscal year, students applying for a first conference take precedence over students applying for a second conference. Approval will be made until available funds are depleted.
Students should contact Elenor Crangle at ecrangle@ku.edu to receive instructions and complete the paperwork, including the School’s travel authorization request form below, and, preferably, direct payment for the other expenses rather than reimbursement to the student.
