Domestic Travel Outside Chicago Area

Rental Vehicles 

Student organizations can use 花季视频's relationship with Enterprise to rent a vehicle for pickup in Evanston or Chicago and bill directly to the group's chart string. A faculty/staff advisor is authorized to complete this on behalf of the org. More information is available here on the Procurement and Payment Services site.  Student organizations who need a vehicle locally will select the 'Registered Student Organizations' local pickup option. Student organizations who wish to reserve a vehicle away from Evanston will select 'Business Use - Travel Outside of Chicagoland.' Note that Enterprise may require drivers to be 21 years of age or older. Additionally, students may rent their own vehicles and seek reimbursement through their SOFO account/chart string for the purchase as long as it is within the guidelines for using their SOFO funds.

Risk management at 花季视频 manages the certified driver program. More information available for students to become certified here: /risk/services/university-vehicle-use/

Requests for exceptions to the University policy that prohibits travel over 150 miles on weekdays and 300 miles on weekends, travel before 6:00am or after 11:00pm must be submitted via email to Risk Management with the following information:

  • Destination

Advisors can register their students to use this service by following the instructions below:

If you have students or part-time employees who need access to Egencia, please fill out columns A-P of this Excel spreadsheet. The completed form should be sent to Jeff Levin; j-levin@northwestern.edu. Please note that you can put more than one student/temp employee on the form and access rights can be assigned for as long as three years. If the travelers are NU faculty/staff or other students who are not in the Egencia system, also request a 'guest account.' Do not move or delete columns on the spreadsheet. After the form is reviewed it will be loaded into Egencia. Please call Jeff at 847-491-5993 for all your travel questions.

In addition, the advisor will need the chart string for which the travel will be billed (all student groups with a SOFO account have a corresponding 花季视频 chart string account).

If a student is responsible for purchasing a flight for other members the advisor should designate that student as the "travel arranger" when contacting Jeff Levin.
