Paychecks
William & Mary uses a semi-monthly payroll calendar. Under this calendar, you will receive 24 paychecks in a calendar year. Paydays are usually the 1st and 16th of each month. When paydays fall on weekends or holidays, direct deposits are generally made the last workday before the regular pay date. Employees who have not signed up for direct deposit will receive checks in the mail. Checks are mailed the day before the payday.
Holidays
William & Mary (W&M) follows the State’s paydays, not holidays. Employees receive 12 paid holidays per year. However, W&M shifts some holidays to the winter break (Christmas through New Year’s) to enable W&M to close during that period. The list of holidays can be found on the University Human Resources site.
