Cuesta College Student Life & Leadership: ASCC Bylaws

Travel Policy Bylaws

  1. Travel that is pre-approved by Senate through the money proposal may include meal reimbursements. Meals will be compensated with a recommendation of up to $40.00 total per day unless an alternate amount is approved through the money proposal process. This compensation applies if travel occurs during those typical meal hours, i.e., breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
  2. If a student uses his/her own vehicle, mileage will be compensated at half (½) of the IRS rate per mile as calculated via round trip mileage.
  3. When a rental vehicle is sanctioned, no other drivers of a personal vehicle can receive reimbursement for gas receipts for a trip unless pre-authorization is given through the money proposal process.
  4. Advances can be requested for group travel when travel occurs during meal hours in which one individual would be responsible for collecting receipts and reconciling the advance to the expenditures.
