Travel reimbursements of up to $600 are available to candidates who received admission offers with full funding. While on campus, there is a set time in the schedule on Friday where those requesting reimbursement will be required to meet with our accounting team to complete a W-9 form and show proof of identification.

For those requesting reimbursement, you will also have the option to receive payment by direct deposit. If you would like to set up a direct deposit, you must bring a voided check or letter from your bank to verify your banking information.

Please save all receipts associated with your travel (flight, on the ground transportation, etc.), as they are required for reimbursement. Copies of receipts, along with the Traveler Expense Sheet, should be emailed to the Accounting Team (acct@cs.unc.edu) at the conclusion of your visit.
