Direct Deposit
Students
Beginning Fall 2007, students are expected to provide information in order to have refunds directly deposited to their bank account. If you already have a bank account, launch STARS, select Direct Deposit Authorization from the menu, and complete the information listed for University Refunds.
For those without a bank account, the University has negotiated arrangements with two local banks to offer "no cost" options, which waive the initial minimum balance requirement and credit check. First Bankers Trust Company is offering a savings account with an ATM card, and MidAmerica National Bank is offering a paperless checking account with an ATM card. In order to take advantage of one of these services, you will need to take your WIU ID to one of their main bank locations and ask for the WIU special account.

Once you have established an account, please remember to complete the Direct Deposit Authorization on STARS.
Parent Borrowers
Excess funds from Federal Parents Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) are sent to the parent borrower. Parents may complete the Direct Deposit Authorization-Parent Borrower form. This form may be mailed to the address on the form or faxed to 309-298-2811.
Employees
Beginning July 1, 2007, employees will begin receiving travel and miscellaneous expense reimbursements via direct deposit. If information is not provided for the direct deposit of WIU Payments/Refunds, the bank information listed as Account 1 on payroll records will be used. To change bank information, select the Direct Deposit Authorization Screen (DDAS) from the WIUP main menu. Bank information may also be changed on STARS by selecting Direct Deposit Authorization from the main menu.
