Cash Advance Form

Cash Advance Form

  • This form is used for  check/direct deposit advance requests.
  • A check/direct deposit advance can be requested for team travel or on-campus official recruiting visits with this form. Please complete the top section including your name, dates of travel, destination, and purpose. The bottom of the form must be completed with who will be picking up the check/cash, their employee ID number (found on Wildcard), and how much money is requested.
  • Check advances should be picked up at the Business Office when they are ready. If cash is needed, please take the issued check advance along with a valid Wildcard to the Bursar's office at 619 Clark Street.
  • After returning from your trip, an Expense Report should be filled out online and submitted to the Business Office with all of the original receipts from purchases made with the advance. Any money not used must be returned by a check payable to Northwestern University. Do not send checks through campus mail.
  • Subsequent travel advances cannot be issued if you are not up-to-date in submitting past expense reports.
