Check Cashing

The University will cash checks at the Bursary for a maximum of $50 with a VSU ID and drivers license. Students, faculty, and staff must always show two forms of picture identification, endorse the check, and enter their student ID number or drivers license number on the check.
Personal checks to be cashed should be made payable to "VSU-CASH".
University personnel cannot cash personal checks from petty cash, personal cash drawers, or vault funds.
Post-dated checks will not be accepted.
VSU cannot accept counter or starter checks (or credit card checks) for any reason or purpose.
Check cashing privileges are not granted to anyone with a hold of any type unless the hold is paid at the time that the check is cashed.
Check cashing privileges are not granted to individuals with a return check hold on their student account. Return check holds are placed on a student’s account as a result of three previous returned checks for non-sufficient funds.
