Payroll Cycle for New Full-time Faculty

SUNY Fredonia is on a Biweekly pay cycle, with pay day every other Wednesday

There is a two-week lag in payroll processing.  This means that we work two weeks, then we wait two weeks while the NYS Office of the State Comptroller produces our paychecks, then we get paid.

Your 10-month salary will be paid to you over the 12- month period of 9/1 – 8/31.  This is the appointment year as defined in Title H, Section 3 of the SUNY Policies of the Board of Trustees.

The first full-time faculty paycheck for Fall 2023 is on 9/27/2023.  This first paycheck will be 1 day short of the full pay period dates of 08/31/23 - 09/13/23 since the contract date is 09/01/23.
