How to Process Payments
Student stipends/award payments must be processed through BSA using the Award Processing Form (APF). Award Processors should indicate in the payment comments that the award is either for a Summer Research Project, an Undergraduate Student Research Award (USRA), or an Undergraduate Research Trainee (URT) as one of the allowable options to pay students. This will facilitate the disbursement of funds by the Central Office.
If a BSA Aid Fund(s) must be created, the award processor can create an aid fund 鈥榦n-the-fly鈥� from the Award Processing form when the funding source is:
- A research grant/contract (fund type 2F or 2M linked to a grant) paying a student stipend
- A granting agency award direct to student (fund type 2C or 2E linked to a grant)
- For all other fund types, the user must submit an Aid Fund Code (AFC) Request form.
Payment Notes
- NSERC and FRSQ USRA awards will be submitted and disbursed with the exception of FRSQ USRA awards in the Faculty of Medicine. Learn more about NSERC Undergraduate Student Research Award and Graduate and Postdoctoral Funding Opportunities.
- Undergraduate Student Research Awards are often funded (wholly or partially) through an external agency.听 Some of these agencies require the signature of a university representative.听These requests for signature should be sent to the Fellowships Officer in Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (GPS).
- Some Undergraduate Student Research Awards require matching funding. In these cases, when the funding for the award is to come from multiple sources, multiple award payments must be made through the BSA APF 鈥� one payment per funding source.听When processing a USRA, the user should indicate in the payment comments that the payment is for a USRA.
