This year's Visit Days are scheduled for March 10-11, 2019.
The EECS Department will provide up to $500 USD to defray the costs of your travel to and from the UC Berkeley Visit Days. To be eligible for payment, travel expenses must fall within the University travel policy. The expenses that will be considered for this travel expense offset are airfare, airport shuttles, rental cars, personal cars, taxis, rideshares, and train fares. Expenses for lodging or meals will not be considered. If you are visiting another university before or after your visit to UC Berkeley, we will provide funds for a fraction of your travel expenses, up to $500 USD.
If you are attending EECS Visit Days with someone who has also been invited, please be aware that each person must purchase their own plane ticket. The name on the receipts and travel itinerary must match the name of the traveler.
The funds to defray your travel costs will be issued in the form of an electronic payment after the completion of your visit to UC Berkeley.
In order to be eligible to receive the funds, you must complete all three items no later than March 31, 2019. Items submitted after this date or incomplete documents will not be accepted or considered for payment.
For any questions related to Visit Days travel expenses, please email visitday@eecs.berkeley.edu. (Note there is no letter "s" at the end of "day" in this email address.)
