General Accounting

Our Services

General Accounting provides financial record keeping functions for the University. We process expenditure transfers, quarterly FIRMS submission to the Chancellor's Office, and charges from the Chancellor's Office and State Controller's Office, as well as producing the consolidated University Financial Statements for the campus.

Please contact our office if you have any questions about expenditure transfers, month-end closing, or opening a new trust account. A list of Accounting Services staff and contact information can be found on our contact page.

Accounts Receivable

The Accounts Receivable (AR) Department offers many services to students and staff, such as processing third party billing, non-student billing, auxiliary organizations billing, other CSU campuses and Chancellor's Office billing via Cash Posting Order (CPO), account analysis, and other financial services.

Only Accounting Services may invoice or bill on behalf of the University. To request an invoice or CPO, fill out the Request for Invoice form, available on the Accounting Services Forms webpage.

CSU Financial Statements

Effective with fiscal year 2010/2011, individual campuses of the CSU are no longer required by legislation to biennially issue independently-audited GAAP financial statements. Rather, campuses of the CSU will be audited as part of the annual CSU Systemwide Financial Statements. Auxiliary organization financial statements can be found on the respective websites. Visit the CSU website to view CSU Financial Statements.
