Who do I contact with questions?

UROP does not have access to most payroll information; for direct assistance, contact the Payroll Department.

Direct Deposit Questions:

Why can't I setup direct deposit?

You may need to wait until the "direct deposit window." If you are not an active employee, you will only be able to setup direct deposit during the dates posted. If you can't access your direct deposit information during the "direct deposit window," contact urop@colorado.edu.

Do I need to report hours to UROP?

No. You don't need to submit a timesheet (report hours) to UROP in the payroll system even though you might see us on your timesheet.ÌýBecause we use the payroll system to issue your award payment in a lump sum, the position is a temporary mechanism for payment.
