In general, full-time faculty appointments are nine-month appointments with salary paid in 12 equal installments beginning on October 1st of each academic year. Paychecks are available in the business office on the first day of the month; paychecks are not sent through the campus mail. The College encourages the use of direct deposit. Employees may authorize salary deductions for savings or for loan payments to designated financial institutions. Pay advices are available online through Hornet HQ. Choose “Employee” on the College’s intranet and then “Earning Statements.” To enroll or make a change in your direct deposit, visit the Payroll website. If the first of the month is a weekend or holiday, checks are available on the last business day prior to the pay date.
