Travel Process and Guidelines
Rose State College has established standardized travel processes to ensure consistent reporting, accountability, and compliance across campus. For all grant-funded travel, faculty/staff must indicate “grant-related” on the DocuSign travel request form and attach supporting documentation. The Grants Office will review the request and schedule a meeting with the traveler to confirm how the event aligns with the grant’s objectives and benefits the College prior to final approval.
