First day you should inquire about your payment if you haven't received it

Don't inquire before this if you haven't received your payment yet, as it could still be processing or in the mail.

*These are marked "Unknown" because once we submit them, the appropriate University administrative units are responsible for processing the awards, and it will be on their timeline. We will have little to no control over the processing speed. If we find out more information or specific dates, we'll certainly post it here.
