Travel Reimbursements Survey

Thank you for visiting Lehigh University! During your visit, we hope you were able to get a feel for our dynamic community and what your life as a student at Lehigh would be like. We are excited for you to join our Class of 2029!

For travel reimbursement, please submit receipts here.

A few notes before you start this process:

  • Please merge all receipts into one PDF file.
  • Please only submit one survey - you will be reimbursed only once, so collect all receipts and submit at the same time.
  • Please submit itemized receipts for reimbursement. This is a university requirement - we cannot use just a credit card receipt without details about the expense.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email admissions@lehigh.edu or call us at (610) 758-3100.
