Time Cards
As of fall 2011, Montana Tech will use pre-printed time cards instead of blank cards. Supervisors will receive pre-printed time cards from Enrollment Processing via campus mail once Enrollment Services receives complete paperwork for each student employee.
Unless otherwise announced by Enrollment Services, all time cards are:
- Due on the 18th day of each month (If the 18th is a weekend or holiday, cards are due on the next business day)
- Only accepted if completed in ink, igned by the student employee, and signed by the supervisor
- Only accepted if delivered by the supervisor, administrative associate, or other campus official. We will accept timecards from a student only if they are in a sealed envelope signed by the supervisor.
Please note, all student employees (hourly & stipend) must submit a monthly time card in order to receive a pay check.
Student Pay Checks
Students are paid on the 1st day of each month. Students that do not have direct deposit can pick up paychecks with a photo ID at the Business Office, MG 205.
- If the 1st is on a Sunday or holiday, checks will be available the following business day. If the 1st is on a Saturday, checks will normally be available on Friday.
- Students leaving for summer break that want the last spring check mailed to them should provide a self-addressed and stamped envelope to the Payroll Office, MG 303.
Students that would like paychecks electronically deposited should submit the Electronic Payroll Deposit form to The Budget & Human Services Office in MG Building, room 303.
- The first check after signing up for direct deposit must be picked up at the Business Office, MG 205; subsequent checks will be electronically deposited.
