A limited amount of funds is available from the WVU at Parkersburg Foundation to underwrite student
travel. Faculty or Organizational Advisors need to complete two forms to
access these funds.
When requesting financial support for
a travel opportunity, please fill out the
Organizational
Travel Request Form. Every student who intends to participate in
the travel opportunity will need to fill out the
Student Travel Request Form. The forms must be turned into
the Foundation Office 30 days in advance of the trip. The final
decision regarding the release of travel funds will be made by the WVU
Parkersburg President.
It is recommended that Faculty or
Advisors alert the Foundation Office as soon as a trip is being planned, so
the Office can anticipate and budget for that request.
Faculty: please encourage the students
to contribute to the expense of the travel and to participate in group
fundraising activities. Faculty and Advisors are also encouraged to exhaust
all possibility of corporate sponsorships and in-kind contributions before
requesting the limited amount of travel funds available.
