Departments that receive funds on behalf of the university are required to deposit and record those funds in a timely manner. The Guide to Internal Controls provides information on separation of duties and deposit frequency in order to maintain good controls and prevent fraud.

Reports of suspected theft, embezzlement, or misuse of University assets may be reported on the Washington University Compliance Hotline.  Washington University has several reporting options and resources that are managed by multiple offices across the university.
