Check Cashing Policy

As of July 1, 2024 the cashier's office will no longer offer check cashing services for employees and students.

Petty cash checks will still be allowed to be cashed by petty cash custodians. Michigan Tech checks are issued to the petty cash custodians to replenish departmental petty cash funds. The following policy relates to cashing these checks only.

  • The petty cash custodian must show their photo ID when cashing the petty cash check
  • The petty cash custodian must have their M number written on the check 

Petty cash checks will be cashed based on the availability of funds.

Safeguarding Cash

Units that collect cash must have adequate measures in place to safeguard that cash. To properly secure cash, it must be kept inaccessible to those who do not have a legitimate need to access it. The use of safes with combination locks is recommended where practical. Units that have cash safes should make sure the safe is kept locked when it is not in use or is unattended by those responsible for it. Additionally, combinations should be changed on a regular basis, especially after anyone who knows the combination leaves the department or no longer needs access to the safe.
