- Set up an external bank account at the financial institution of your choice (e.g. the EMU Credit Union branch located in the Student Center). Please make sure that the name of your organization's bank account is the same as the name of your organization.
- Become established as a University vendor by submitting a completed W-9 Form [PDF]and an Authorization for Direct Deposit Form (Business Vendors) [PDF] to the EMU Accounts Payable Office by either fax (734-485-5281), mail (112 Hover Building Ypsilanti, MI 48197), or via secure electronic submission using Virtu Secure Share to: [email protected]
- Once you have received confirmation from Accounts Payable that your organization has been successfully set up as a vendor, email the department you are receiving funds from to request a balance transfer.
In order to receive funds from any department on campus your organization must have an external bank account set up and have completed the W9 and Direct Deposit paperwork with Accounting.
