FOR OUR TUTORS...

Thank you all so much for your hard work, your dedication, and your commitment to helping your tutees succeed! I know that tutoring is one of the most challenging jobs on campus and I also know the amount of work and the responsibility that is asked of you! Please remember that if there is ever anything you feel you need to be a more effective tutor or if you have questions or concerns about anything at all, you can email, call, IM, or stop by to see me anytime.

Payroll Timeline

Pay Periods and Timesheet Due Dates - calendar of pay periods, due dates for bi-weekly pay, and pay dates

1. It is a biweekly pay period, which means that you need to submit timesheets and that you will get paid every two weeks. See the calendar of pay periods and timesheet due dates above.
   
2. During the pay period, you should fill out a Report Form to document each of your tutoring sessions. Be sure to get the signatures of the students and that the date and length of sessions are accurate!
   
3. By the Tuesday after each two-week pay period, you should submit your tutoring hours on your Web Timesheet and drop off all signed report forms to me. I must have your signed report forms in order to approve your web timesheet.
4. If you do not have a web timesheet, you must fill out a Paper Timesheet (in pen) and drop that off to me along with your signed report forms by the Tuesday after each two-week pay period.
5. If you miss the timesheet deadline or forget to submit your timesheet, you will have to fill out a Paper Timesheet to be submitted for the following pay deadline.
6. Pay Checks for time submitted will then come in the following Friday - the Friday right before the end of the following pay. Again, see the calendar of pay periods and timesheet due dates above.

It is VERY important that payroll procedures are followed and that all paperwork is submitted in a timely fashion. I may take into account a tutor's failure to follow payroll procedures and meet deadlines when making hiring decisions for future semesters. All the forms you need can be found below, and if you have any questions at all please let me know.
