Id like to use my funding to pay a graduate student to assist me during the summer: do I include fringe benefits for the students hourly pay?
If your graduate student is enrolled in a study program in the summer you will not need to calculate fringe benefits. However, if your student is not enrolled, you will need to calculate fringe benefits: for example, if you pay your student $10.00 per hour, you must add to it an additional cost of the fringe benefits. Please consult with your Home Department Coordinator to determine the most current fringe rates.
