This is a reminder for all Student Officers appointed on or after July 1, 2024, the Student Officer payroll processing and payment will take place after the close of a pay period.
As previously announced in a March 14, 2024 email, Student Officers will continue to be paid on a semi-monthly basis and the pay periods (1st to 15th and 16th to the end of the month) will not change. However, the payroll processing date for Student Officers will shift so that it is one to two business days after the end of the pay period and the check date will be approximately three business days after that.
Why is the payroll processing timeline changing?
The University is implementing a Student Officer payroll to provide better support to our Student Officers aimed at increasing accuracy and efficiency. The separate payroll will enhance the departments’ ability to include newly appointed Student Officers on payroll at the start of a semester when the majority of Student Officers are onboarded in a short time period. This payroll approach is consistent with other employee groups, whose payroll is also processed and paid after the pay period ends.
Please note this has no impact on student stipends, which are administered through Student Financial Services’ financial aid process and are not part of payroll processing.
Payroll calendars
The payroll calendars for the 2024-25 fiscal year are available on the Human Resources website. Student Officers will follow the Semi-Monthly Other schedule. Please note that the deadline to submit TBH hire/rehire transactions for Student Officers has shifted to give you more time to get the hiring paperwork processed at the beginning of each term.
