Revenue Collection Best Practices

Confirm with Student Life Business Services (SLBS) that your department has an approved Revenue Generating Form for revenue collection with Student Account Services.

General Guidelines

New Events and Processes

All new events/processes should be vetted with your Departmental Budgetary Liaison to ensure it aligns with the Division of Student Life Mission and Vision.

Receipt Book

Departments should keep a triplicate carbon copy receipt book to record all cash and checks collected within the department.

  • White receipt to payor
  • Yellow copy attached to check/cash and provided to SLBS
  • Pink copy stays in receipt book

Fundraising Events

Fundraising events should be vetted with Student Life External Relations before revenue collection processes are determined.

Fundraising events include any revenue collection that is outside the normal course of business for your office. For example: silent auctions, 5Ks, etc.
