Travel Claims

​​Before using their own vehicles, students must first determine if the vehicle pool does not have an available vehicle. Should no vehicle be available, students may use their own vehicles. An application form must subsequently be completed for the reimbursement of travelling fees, which must be submitted to the SUNLOC offices.
Application forms for reimbursement can be downloaded from the links provided on the Home Page.​
