IMPORTANT CHANGES TO ODU RESEARCH FOUNDATION’S TRAVEL POLICY (4/16/2012)

The Old Dominion University Research Foundation (ODURF) is currently making two changes to its travel policy.  In order to be consistent with the policies of both federal and state regulations, ODURF will now reimburse per diem for the first and last day of travel at 75% of the total M&IE per diem rate. 

ODURF will also adjust its reimbursement rate for the use of one’s personal automobile for business purposes to $0.555 per mile.

The new policy/rate is effective April 17, 2012 and will apply to all official travel on or after that date. The new policy/rate matches those approved by the General Services Administration.
