Salary Verification
Salary information must be verified by viewing the "State and Research Base by Dept or Employee 790#" report in Info Griz or the NBAJOBS form in Banner.

Academic Faculty - 9-month
AY Salary - 190 day contract paid over 10 pay periods
Academic Year Salary:
Base Salary / 190 = Daily Rate
Base Salary / 8.77 = Monthly Rate (190 days/195 days multiplied by 9 months)
Maximum Summer Days = 70 days (190 day "AY" plus 70 days Summer is 260 days; a complete working year)
Days per Month = 21.67 Days (260 days in working year / 12 months)
NSF will typically only allow 2 months of salary. Although it used to be restricted to summer salary only, they now allow the 2 months to be requested any time during the calendar year.
