GETTING PAID

Your stipend will be paid to you in two installments. You will receive the first portion of your awarded stipend (all but $200) before or at the beginning of your internship. Your second check of $200 will be issued to you after you have completed your internship, submitted a summer activity report, and after your supervisor has submitted a letter commenting on your work performance and confirming that you completed a minimum of 220 hours.

When to expect your first check

It may take 3-4 weeks to receive your first check after your application has been approved, or longer than 3-4 weeks if you submit your application closer to the deadline.

Mailing first checks

If you are currently active for direct deposit for payroll, your Praxis stipend will be direct deposited to that same account. If you are not set up for direct deposit, you may choose whether you want your first check mailed to your campus mailbox or to your permanent mailing address. Checks will not be sent to any other addresses.*

*If your permanent home mailing address is outside of the United States, you can request that your check be mailed to a U.S. address.

When to expect your second check

You can expect your second and final installment of $200 approximately three weeks after both of the following items have been submitted to the CDO:

  • A completed Summer Activity Report
  • A letter or e–mail from your supervisor confirming that you have worked a minimum of 220 hours, and commenting on your work performance.
  • If required, a thank-you letter to the donor (and a copy of the letter to the cdo)

Your second check will be direct deposited to your account or mailed to the address you indicate at the bottom of the Summer Activity Report.
