Hello Nicole,
Here is the University of New Mexico policy on travel, which addresses travel
advances in Section 18:
UAP 4030 ("Travel"): http://policy.unm.edu/university-policies/4000/4030.html
18. Travel Advances
As noted in Section 12 herein, most travel expenses with the exception of meal
expenses should be purchased using a PCard. Travel advances will only be
considered and authorized on an exception basis. All travel advance requests
must be thoroughly documented and are subject to final approval by Financial
Services.
In addition, here is a link to our Financial Services office website which
describes in more detail the process for obtaining and documenting cash
advances (international travel is listed as a justifiable reason to obtain one):

Do any of your travel policies address travel advances for international
faculty lead student groups to countries that are cash based? Wanted to know
how other Universities provide faculty funds to cover costs where the country
does not accept credit cards and therefore would require the faculty to carry
large amounts of cash for the expenditures.
Best,
Nicole
