Student Travel Funding Request

Use this form to request travel from the IDP to attend a meeting.

If you are the presenting author, you are eligible for at least $300 per fiscal year. You pay for your travel through your adviser or department, and then the IDP will transfer appropriate funds to the account that funded the travel after all of the travel has been cleared through the university accounting. The IDP does not provide up-front funding, nor does it directly reimburse students.

If you are in your final year of study, you are expected to request $300 from the university to help cover travel costs. Please go to this page to check them out: http://graduateschool.ufl.edu/finances-and-funding/travel-funding. The Graduate Student Council, also linked on this page, also has travel funds up to $250 available, regardless of your year of study.

If your mentor agrees to commit at least 1% of their center indirect cost returns to the IDP, you will receive an additional $700 (total $1,000 per student per year) if you are a presenting author. Have your mentor go to this page to agree to the IDC allocation: http://idp.med.ufl.edu/faculty/faculty-mentor-indirect-cost-return-agreement. This page is also located under the “Faculty” tab of the IDP web page.
