Cash Only Deposit Form

This form is used for cash deposits only.

Per Wisconsin State Statutes, (Chap. 20.906 Wis. Statutes), all payments/receipts collected or received are to be deposited within 5 business days.

The Bursar’s Office is cashless and does not accept cash deposits. Departments are responsible for depositing all cash collected or received with US Bank directly within the time frame established by Wisconsin State Statute 20.906.

All moneys collected or received from customers or vendors of the University of Wisconsin–Madison (the University) belong to the University. These moneys may not be deposited with the University of Wisconsin Foundation or to an individual’s private bank account. Moneys collected or received may not be deposited into the University’s replenishable/contingent bank accounts, including petty cash accounts and custodian fund checking accounts, or be used to purchase supplies or services.

To avoid theft or loss, it is recommended departments deposit cash at a US Bank branch multiple times a week; however, collected or received cash must be deposited weekly at a minimum. Cash deposits must be hand delivered to a US Bank branch; they cannot be mailed to US Bank. Departments are expected to ensure appropriate cash handling procedures, management oversight and internal controls (for example separation of duties) are in place over cash deposits.

Deposit procedures

Follow the deposit procedures below to ensure funds are deposited appropriately and are timely posted to your department’s funding string:

Recurring cash deposits

Order US Bank deposit tickets and plastic bank bags from UW Cash Management to make these deposits directly at a US Bank branch. These deposits will be coded to your department clearing account.

One-off cash deposit

Deposit cash at a US Bank branch with a generic deposit ticket containing UW–Madison banking details. (Please request banking details from UW Cash Management at cashmgt@bussvc.wisc.edu, as these are not published.)
