Final Summer Pay Stub/Volunteer Letters

Every year Student Financial Services conducts a fall review process to finalize student contributions and financial aid awards. ALL AID RECIPIENTS, including those receiving only loans, are required to submit the Summer Income & Expense Update web form and documentation of summer earnings, such as a final paystub or a volunteer letter from all employers. This is part of step 5 of the financial aid application process which normally occurs in late August/early September of each academia year. 

Your final pay stub(s) must clearly display your total gross earnings from each employer. If for some reason you do not have your final pay stub(s) or if your stub(s) does not clearly display your gross earnings, you will need to get a letter directly from your employer on company letterhead which provides gross earnings, weekly wage, start date and end date.

There are a couple of exceptions to the pay stub(s) requirement:

• Most entering students will not be required to submit pay stub(s). However, if we determine we need a pay stub(s) from an entering student we will request it on a case by case basis.
• Returning students receiving summer income from ONLY the HLS Summer Public Interest Funding Program (SPIF) do not have to submit pay stubs since we can access their data directly from the summer funding database. Please note, however, that the paystub document will not automatically be waived and may take up to one week after the submission of your web form.
