Additional Steps to Follow

Need Funding? The Student Affairs Travel Fund provides financial assistance to registered student organizations, in good stand, seeking to bring recognition to Sam Houston State University through participation in off-campus, regional, state, national and international student events, conferences, competitions, etc. These funds are not intended to strictly support academic programming. For more information, see Student Travel Funds Guidelines.

Gather Documents. The SHSU employee traveling with a student group is responsible for coordination, collections, and submittal of required documentation including completed and signed Emergency Medical Treatment Form and Release and Indemnification Agreement.

Setup Chrome River profile(s). Undergraduate students must be setup as a vendor in Chrome River by an admin staff to create pre-approval and expense travel reports.

1. Complete Guest Traveler Setup Form
2. Departmental admin will need to create a report utilizing their profile, selecting the guest/prospective employee as the traveler type, and the traveler’s name as the vendor.
3. Once the vendor name is selected, then the report is tied to the traveler’s name and no longer in the name of the admin when information is transferred to Banner.
4. Departmental admin’s profile in Chrome River will still be utilized for reports. Reports will be routed automatically through Chrome River for approval based on org used for expenses.
