How do I pay for pre-conference expenses such as registration and hotel deposit?
If you have to pre-register for a conference or hotel stay more than 21 days in advance of your travel, you have a few options for payment.
- You can pay on a personal card. (You will not be reimbursed until after the trip.)
- You can request UCSD submit a check on your behalf. Please notify Fiscal Support Hawiza Sharpe at a minimum of 30 days in advance before the check is due.
- You can put the registration or hotel deposit on your UCSD travel card. Please notify Hawiza Sharpe if you do this so late fees are not incurred.
- You can put the registration on your express card or the departmental express card - preferred method.
