Student grant funding is paid as a stipend using the university's payroll system (job code 3205).ÌýÌýAlthoughÌýstudents need an employee identification number (EID) and payments are made through the payroll system, UROP funding is not considered payroll wages or employee compensation.ÌýUROP funding is considered "Other Financial Aid" (OFA) according to the university's policy on paying students and all award information will be reported to the Office of Financial Aid. This means that your funding could impact the amount of other financial aid you receive because the total amount of financial aid you receive cannot exceed your total Cost of Attendance (COA). When total financial aid exceeds the COA, we must reduce aid. When reducing aid, we make every effort to reduce the least favorable types of aid, such as loans, first. Some students may not see an impact, but those that normally receive or borrow aid up to their COA will see a reduction to loans or other aid to account for the funding.
