Below is information regarding stipend distribution schedules for 2007/2008.  The stipend year for new graduates runs from September 1, 2007 through May 31, 2008  For Continuing graduates the stipend year starts on June 1, 2007 through May 31, 2008.

New graduate students are required to complete forms W-4 and CT W-4.  You are also required to fill out I-9 employment forms.  Without these forms completed and in our office, you will not receive your stipend checks.  These forms must be filled out whether or not you receive a stipend.

If you have any questions about your tax forms or tax status, please contact the Payroll Office at payroll@wesleyan,edu If you are an International Student, you must make an appointment with Payroll to discuss you tax status.  Failure to do so will result in your stipend being withheld until the submission of this information. 

Dependency allowance applications are located in the Office of Graduate Student Services.  If approved, these checks are distributed on the first pay period of each month in a separate check, and sent to the same address as the stipend check.

If you have any questions, please email wblades@wesleyan.edu or stop by the Office of Graduate Student Services.  Thank you.
