The reimbursement of travel expenses is only up to the limit specified for each recipient (US$500 for recipients in Europe, US$1000 for recipients elsewhere).

In order to receive the funds, the students need to fill out 2 forms:

1. Either a W8 or W9 form. The W8 is for students who are considered foreign by the US government, and the W9 is for US students.
2. The Expense Report form. Note that all expenses do not have to be listed, only those that will be reimbursed, so once your total is over your limit, you can stop listing expenses. For many people, this means only an airline ticket and/or possibly the hotel cost need to be listed. The form is already partially filled-in. Be sure to include your name and mailing address on the top as well as the expense details.

Finally, the printed, signed forms and the corresponding original receipts (taped to blank sheets of paper and not stapled) should be sent to:
