The university GoCard program, similar to a ProCard,  is used to prepay expenses related to Official University travel. Allowable expenses include:

• Conference fees
• Registration fees
• Airfare
• Car rentals
• Lodging
• Travel arrangements made through the official university vendor, Travel Consultants
• Parking/Taxi/Shuttle

GoCards are issued only to staff responsible for arranging and coordinating travel for their department. Go cards will not be issued to individuals solely for their use.

To apply for or make changes to an existing GoCard, complete the GoCard Application. For more information, please contact the GoCard Program Administrator.

   • If your Approving Official changes, submit an updated GoCard Application.
2. Take the in-person training course GoCard Reconciliation (FIN903).
   • You must complete this course and request system access before you can enter the ProCard Reconciliation functions of PeopleSoft Finance.

   • If you lose a receipt, replace it with the Certification of Receipt of Goods (pdf).
4. Each month, you must reconcile your statement to verify that the charges are valid and that goods have been received.
