Payroll Dates
Bi-weekly timesheets are due by 5pm on Fridays at the end of each pay period. We will send reminders to UROP students and faculty sponsors on the day before the deadline. It is up to the student to submit their timesheets to the office on time during each pay period.
Holidays and Season Days
UROP students are able to work on University-recognized holidays. Students earning wages will receive "time and a half" for any holiday work completed. But please note that these earnings will count against the total UROP assistantship awarded. Click here to view the University's list of Holiday and Season Days.
