However, the students are responsible for the expenses of hotel (OUR will reimburse) and food (OUR will not reimburse). Travel will be provided by OUR with a Fleet Vehicle. After the conference, the Office of Undergraduate Research will reimburse the students, who attend the conference for their hotel room.
In order to receive any funding from the Office of Undergraduate Research for their hotel and for OUR to pay the students registration fee, students must list VT Office of Undergraduate Research (email: Keri Swaby, kswaby@vt.edu) as their institutional representation on their NCUR application form and must also inform the OUR when they submit their application, providing the presenter’s name and major, presentation title, and abstract.
