The University’s payroll process runs on a 2 week cycle designated as a pay period. Each pay period begins on a Saturday and ends on a Friday. Pay checks are payable the Friday following the end of a pay period. There are typically 26 pay periods in each fiscal year which runs from July 1 – June 30.

Holidays We celebrate fourteen (14) holidays, three (3) of which are observed by staff only. Those holidays are designated as optional and the University is open for classes and offices are staffed to provide required services. Holidays which fall on a Saturday are observed on the Friday immediately preceding the date and holidays which fall on Sunday are observed on the following Monday.
