   5. Fill in the appropriate information for a travel advance if necessary
2. In the case of student travel, a supervisor must sign the form.
3. Take the completed T&L to room 104 in Engineering Activities Building B.
4. If a travel advance is needed:
   1. Texas A&M: The T&L should be submitted NO LATER THAN TWO WEEKS before travel. The travel coordinator must fill out a separate form to request the advance.
   2. TEES: It is not necessary to fill out a separate form however it still takes extra time to process an advance and the earlier you submit the T&L the better.

During the trip

After the trip

1. Complete a Travel Worksheet Form.
2. Take all receipts for which reimbursement is requested to room 104 in Engineering Activities Building B along with the completed Travel Worksheet.
