Direct Deposits

To ensure accuracy in the deposit of wages, faculty and staff are encouraged to complete their direct deposit election. Faculty and staff who properly complete their election will receive a direct deposit for the next available pay period. For those that have not completed their direct deposit election, wage payments will be made in accordance with Finance & Operations Check Disbursement Policy.

Hourly Student and Doc/Grad Student Employees are paid through their Bearkat OneCard. To set up your Payroll Preferences visit bearkatone.com or contact the Bearkat OneCard Office at (936)294-CARD(2273).
