Wire Transfers and Foreign Currency Options

The University has the capability of issuing payments by check, ACH bank transfer, or wire transfer.

Domestic

The University’s standard method of payment is by check. 

Payments via ACH bank transfer (direct deposit) can be made to vendors that have registered in our PaymentWorks vendor portal. If you would like to register as a PaymentWorks registration to a payee, please email Accounts Payable with the payee's name, email address, and a short description of the service(s)/product(s).

International

Please see the following information for handling wire transfers:

If payment is being made to a payee with a bank account outside the U.S., payment can be made with a wire transfer in either U.S. dollars or in the local currency of that country. Complete the Wire Transfer Form and attach it to the payment request form being submitted through the Financial Toolkit. 

Please note: The payee may incur higher fees from their bank for receiving U.S. dollars rather than the local currency.

Additionally, Accounts Payable may require a PaymentWorks registration in order to complete an international wire transfer. If that is the case, Accounts Payable will send the registration invitation to the contact email address provided in the Financial Toolkit payment request. Accounts Payable will note in the payment request's comment section that a PaymentWorks invitation has been sent.
