Payment Guide
Students should carefully read all of the information included here and plan ahead by marking the dates posted in the "payment timeline" on their calendars. Because we pay award funding directly to students as a stipend using the university's payroll system, they might need to complete one or all of the following steps for payment. Whether a student will need to complete either of these steps will depend on their prior employment history with the University of Colorado Boulder. We strongly encourage students to look ahead and share this payment information with their mentors.
Review the Payment Timeline
Don't forget to mark your calendar and set reminders to take any applicable action on these dates. Look at the pay date in your award notice and refer to the dates under that month's heading.
Provide Your Personal Information
To receive your payment, you might need to provide some of your personal information using an online form.
Setup Direct Deposit
After you have been entered into the payroll system, you will have access to setup your direct deposit information to receive payment in your bank account.

You may need to wait until the "direct deposit window." If you are not an active employee, you will only be able to setup direct deposit during the dates posted. If you can't access your direct deposit information during the "direct deposit window," contact urop@colorado.edu.
No. You don't need to submit a timesheet (report hours) to PACE in the payroll system even though you might see us on your timesheet. Because we use the payroll system to issue your award payment in a lump sum, the position is a temporary mechanism for payment.
