Student Award Payments: CALS Department Process

Student award payments, which are payments to students NOT tied to services rendered or prizes for contests and competitions open to the public, were previously paid using Payment to Individual Report forms (PIR). CALS Business Services has developed the Student Award Payment Form to replace PIRs when processing payments to students. Previously account code 3750, prizes and awards, was used for student award payments, however new guidance from the Bursar’s Office and Accounting Services is to use account code 5711, program code 9 (academic related scholarships) or 5709, program code 4 (research related payments) when processing student award payments.
