Prepare Deposit for Drop Off at Student Financial Services

Prepare Deposit for Drop Off at Student Financial Services

Important Notes:

  • This resource outlines the process to prepare a deposit for drop off at Student Financials.

  • Departmental Deposits are used to record the receipt of cash, check, coin, ACH and/or credit card payments that are not already handled by the Treasury Department.

  • If your department receives a check for a transaction that has been processed by Accounts Receivable, the check must be sent to AR for deposit and payment posting. In these instances, DO NOT deposit the check via the departmental deposit process.
