Employees or Students may request a cash advance when circumstances warrant it. University credit card programs, accounts payable invoice process and direct bill agreements should always be utilized as the number one option to reduce the need for out-of-pocket costs and advances.
Cash advances are most often used for Student Travel and Research/IRB Study Participants.
