Policy

Direct Deposit is offered to all Faculty & Staff on a voluntary basis as a means of having their net pay deposited in either a checking account, savings account or both.

If Faculty or Staff sign up for direct deposit, 100% of their net pay must be direct deposited. There is no option to have both a live check and a deposit simultaneously.

Direct Deposit Online

Faculty & Staff can add, edit or inactivate their own direct deposit information with immediate impact on their next paycheck.

There is no waiting period for direct deposit to take effect.

1. Faculty & Staff should go to the myColumbia Portal and click on the link "Log in with your Columbia UNI."
2. After logging in with UNI and password, click on the "Faculty & Staff" tab at the top of the page.
3. On the Faculty & Staff page, scroll down to the blue bar titled "Faculty & Staff Self Service" and click on the link "View Your Direct Deposit Information."

We have developed a full set of Instructions for Online Direct Deposit (PDF) that you can distribute to Faculty & Staff in your department as needed.
