Payroll checks for any university employee may be deposited into their checking account or savings account. These deposits may be made to any bank or credit union within the United States. Accounts will be credited by the financial institution on the university payday. If an employee does not sign up for direct deposit, the employee will receive a Bank of America debit card. The first paycheck will be a paper check to be picked up in the Cashier's Office. Meanwhile, a debit card is mailed to the home address indicated in Workday. Initially, the debit card has a zero balance and once payroll processes the second time and each pay period thereafter, the debit card is loaded with the net pay amount. Payment will continue in this manner until such time that a direct deposit account is established.
