Travel Information

The Research and Curriculum Unit will reimburse each individual participant for necessary meals, lodging, and mileage in personal vehicles. Reimbursement for meals is limited to a maximum of $25.00 per day with overnight stay.  If a meal is provided at the meeting, your meal allowance will be reduced to $15 per day. Hotel reimbursement is limited to a maximum of $85.00 plus tax per night and rooms should be booked at the “standard single state rate.” It is your responsibility to make hotel reservations and to turn in lodging receipts in your name for reimbursement.  All lodging receipts must show a zero balance.  Lodging will be allowed for those who live in excess of 50 miles from the meeting location.  If you live over 75 miles from the location lodging will be allowed for the night prior if the meeting begins prior to 10 a.m.  Lodging will be allowed for the last night of the meeting if the participant will be traveling over 75 miles and the meeting adjourns after 4 p.m.   Mileage is reimbursed from the school to the meeting location and return at $.55 per mile.  Due to a change in MSU Business Office procedures, direct billing and reimbursement of participant’s travel expenses to a school district is no longer feasible. This change includes billing for lodging and use of a school vehicle. 

Housing Accomodations

Participants are responsible for their own travel accommodations. Please find below a listing of suggested housing for your stay in Starkville or Hattiesburg.
