A Travel Authority form must be filled out two weeks before an employee can travel on business for Georgia Tech. An example of the form is found in the CSIP Orientation Package. All students must send an email to Christy Ellis asking her to do a Travel Authority. The advisor should be aware of the travel and must have given his or her permission. Please include the following information in the email that is sent to Christy. (If Christy is not here, Charlotte Doughty can do the Travel Authority for you.)

• Traveler's full name
• The advisor's name
• An account number (from the advisor) to be charged for the trip
• The dates of the trip
• Where the traveler is going
• Why the traveler is going (ex. To attend and present paper at XYZ Conference.)
• The cost of the plane ticket if purchased by student
• The cost of the hotel room
• Any other costs associated with Georgia Tech business during the trip
