Request for Cash
The University discourages the request for cash, except under the following circumstances. Exceptions are made for replenishment of petty cash funds operated by University departments, reimbursement of expenses of small amounts to University employees and other requests approved by the Controller's Office.
To request cash under the above circumstances, you will need to:
- Use the request for check form by crossing out the word "check" and writing "cash."
- The form is filled out using the same criteria that is described in the request for check instructions.
- Attach original receipts to the form.
- Cash must be picked up at the Cashier's Office, Schmidt Hall Room 102. Cash will never be sent through inter-office mail.
- Indicate on the request for cash the denominations that you need.
- Due to the limited cash kept in the Controller's Office, please allow at least 48 hours on amounts over $200.
- The employee picking up the cash will be required to sign the request for cash form at the time the cash is picked up.
- Please verify the cash before leaving the cashier's window.
