[ Cashier's Office ]
The Office of the Cashier strives
to provide professional, high-quality customer service to all members of
the University community. The Cashier’s Office serves as a "mini-bank"
accepting all University cash and check deposits, accepting and processing
student payments, student loans and disbursing cash for University
approved transactions. Our goal is to provide excellent customer service
to our customers as well as to process each transaction efficiently and accurately.
The Office of the Cashier is part
of the Cash & Liability Management Department of the Treasurer's Office. The Cashier's Office
provides services to the University community at large including both students
and University offices.
The collection and controlling of cash at
the University of Pennsylvania are very important functions. We would like
to remind you of the Deposit of Cash Receipts financial policy #1504.
