New handling of UROG funding
Students have to advance payments themselves! - and can then apply for reimbursement of costs as outlined in the UROG budget
- ONLY use cards in names of students on the UROG application
- TIP: use a CREDIT CARD and apply for reimbursement immediately after making the payment.
That way the reimbursement will be in your bank account within 30 days - depending on the timing, hopefully before your bank account is charged. - If you do not have your own credit card: you can register 1 card in name of – for example, a parent that you can use instead.
Getting Reimbursed
- ONLY use cards under names of students on the UROG application -- payments under different names will NOT be reimbursed!
- ONLY Card-receipts with authentication code (승인번호) will be reimbursed!
- Do NOT pay private individuals who cannot issue receipts.
- Use common sense:
- Do not buy alcohol with UROG funding
- Do not deviate from the approved budget
Need to Know
- Equipment purchased with UROG funding belongs to UAC and will need to be returned/catalogued after wrapping up your project.
- A more detailed finance workshop will be held after UROG grants are awarded for the grant winners & faculty mentors.
