Travel or Expense Purpose
(Required)
Enter the name of the event for which you are traveling or other expected expense.
Travel or Expense Start Date
(Required)
Travel or Expense End Date
(Required)
Describe the type of exception to the standard policy you are requesting
(Required)
E.g.: I am seeking approval to drive to the annual conference instead of flying.
Describe your justification for seeking this exception to the standard policy
(Required)
E.g.: I live ~2 hour drive from the conference location. The cost to drive is equivalent or lower, and it could be useful to have a vehicle at the Academy's disposal during the event if local travel is needed.
Outline the cost differences and supporting documentation you have gathered. Upload said documentation in the next response space below.
(Required)
E.g.: According to the Travelocity flight comparison attached below, r/t airfare runs ~$380, while the quote I got from Enterprise and calculated fuel costs estimate the cost of driving at $300.
