Using miles to get a ticket for a non-relative?

Hi all,

Apologies if there's a consistent and clear answer to this somewhere - I searched and didn't find anything. Without getting into the details, I am hoping to use miles to book a flight for one of my grad students for an international trip, since this will help my grant money go much further. There's no problem on my end with the institutions involved (funder, university, etc.) but will AA flag this as potentially fraudulent? Does the fact that the student is not a US citizen complicate things further? Any advice on how to avoid trouble here, or reassurance that I'm being paranoid, would be appreciated.
