Fall and Spring Allocations
Graduate Student Health
Allocations to cover graduate health insurance costs for eligible students are made once during the fall and spring semesters. Because allocations are not processed during the summer, the spring allocation is higher to compensate for the lack of summer allocation.
The allocations are calculated as follows:
- Student Accounts provides a list of health costs for eligible students.
- For students on the list, appointment data is pulled from SAP to determine what cost centers fund each student's payroll (September funding splits are used for the fall allocation and March for spring.)
- The total amount due for health is split between the identified cost objects using the same split as payroll, with grad health charges posting in October and March.
Graduate Student Tuition
Allocations to cover tuition for eligible graduate students are made once during the fall and spring semesters, typically in October and March. Currently there are no allocations made for summer tuition.
The allocations are calculated as follows:
- Student Accounts provides a list of tuition costs for eligible students.
- For students on the list, appointment data is pulled from SAP to determine what cost centers fund each student's payroll (September funding splits are used for the fall allocation and March for spring.)
- Each student's total payroll on the identified cost object(s) is divided by the total payroll for all eligible students for that calculation period to determine a tuition percentage.
- This percentage is multiplied by the total graduate student tuition cost for the respective calculation period. The result is the amount allocated to each cost object for each student.
The following graphic helps to illustrate the tuition allocation:
