Payments to NYU

The Tandon Finance team facilitates the processing of non-gift / non-grant-related funds for the Tandon community. Please follow the instructions below based on the type of payment being processed.

For standard departmental refunds or miscellaneous payments, you have three primary options:

OPTION 1

Brooklyn Bursar's Office (Preferred) - Submit physical deposits directly to the StudentLink Center for the fastest processing.
Location: 5 MetroTech Center, 2^nd Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11201

Please Note:
These deposits must adhere to the following steps:

1. Complete the deposit transmittal form
2. Deliver the check/cash to the Brooklyn Bursar's Office address listed above along with the deposit transmittal form
3. Send a copy of the deposit transmittal form & check (if applicable) to TandonFinanceOffice@nyu.edu

OPTION 2

Tandon Finance Team - Physical deposits can be brought to the finance office
Location: 1 MetroTech Center, 19^th Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11201

Requirement: You must schedule a drop-off time with one of the Budget & Finance team members before arriving

OPTION 3

ACH / Wire Transfers - Vendors may submit payments electronically via ACH or Wire transfer. Please follow the below steps to ensure the funds are properly received and recorded.

1. Instruction: Provide the vendor with the ACH or Wire Instructions
   Note: Ensure the vendor includes a reference (e.g., Invoice # or Project ID) in the transfer memo field to simplify tracking
    
2. Confirmation: Request a bank payment confirmation (or a federal reference number) from the vendor once the transfer is initiated
    
3. Verification: Monitor your UDW+ report to verify that the payment fund has been posted to your account
   
   Timing: Domestic transfers usually appear within 2-3 business days; international wires may take longer. However, the Central Office needs time to transfer the amount to your Chartfield. Please allow 7-10 business days after the transfer has been made before running UDW+ report
    
4. Missing Funds: If the credit does not appear in UDW+ within the expected timeframe, your team must submit a Cash Claim Form to initiate a search for the missing transaction

If you accidentally used a University Payment Card for personal expenses, or need to return funds to NYU, please follow this specific workflow:

1. Prepare Payment: Make your check payable to "New York University"
    
2. Complete Documentation: Fill out the Form to Reimburse NYU for Expense
   Note: Ensure you include the correct Chartfield to be credited
    
3. Submit: Bring the check/cash and the completed Reimbursement NYU for Expense Form to the Brooklyn Bursar's Office (5 MetroTech Center, 2^nd Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11201)
    
4. Record Keeping: The Bursar's Office shall provide a stamped deposit transmittal form. Please keep this receipt
    
5. Reconciliation: In your monthly expense report, mark the transaction as "Personal / Non-Reimbursable"
    - State the reason for reimbursement
    - Attach the scanned copy of the stamped deposit form to your reconciliation
    - Reference: See page 5 of Payment Card FAQs for more details
