Rebudget (Transfer of Funds)

 

All transfer of funds to and from fellowship stipends, tuition/remission fees, travel, or a category that has not been originally budgeted requires prior approval of Dr. Russell Moll, the Sea Grant director. Please send your request to sgbudget@seamail.ucsd.edu, address the email to Dr. Russell Moll, and include the following in your message:

1) The relevant grant number: U-04-SC-005;
2) The Sea Grant project number (e.g., R/SF-50);
3) Your campus account and fund numbers and/or purchase order number;
4) For each rebudget requiring approval, include a justification and the following:

Travel – If the overdraft in travel is due to an additional trip, include the number of travelers, to/from details, type of transportation (e.g., airfare, mileage) and total cost of the trip. Identify the purpose of each trip and how it relates to the project. Read the travel restrictions on our website.

Other – Identify cost categories such as communications, printing, publication charges, graphics, phones, computer time or usage, and total for each category.
