Travel Funding for Students
AURMS will pay for students' MARTA or Uber/Lyft rides to and from the seminar, as well as expenses like visitor parking. We want you to have the opportunity to visit other institutions and network with peers from all over Atlanta without worrying about travel costs. Many schools are easily reached via MARTA.
To request travel funding,
Purchase a MARTA ticket, Uber/Lyft ride, or visitor parking spot
Scan your receipt or keep the digital receipt
Follow these instructions to receive reimbursement.
You'll get a check in the mail to pay you back for the cost of your ride.
We appreciate it when students take MARTA, and when those taking an Uber (particularly if a group of students from the same institution is attending) ride together so that we can fund as many riders as possible. Thank you!
If you experience any issues with the reimbursement process, let us know at aurms.contact@gmail.com.
