Travel costs (e.g., airfare, train tickets, mileage) will be reimbursed after the event. Travel expenses submitted for reimbursement should be “ordinary, reasonable, and necessary” given the team’s needs to travel from campus to Alexandria VA . Please feel free to ask questions.
The process for purchasing tickets/arranging travel will likely vary from campus to campus.
