Reminder for Department Chairs and Hiring Managers on Out-of-State Hires
Please keep in mind that College policy requires that employees reside in Maryland or a state where the College has payroll tax reciprocity (i.e., DC, VA, WV, PA, DE, MA).
Due to staffing challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, exceptions were made allowing for some part-time faculty to be hired outside of these states. These authorized hires have been permitted to remain employed with the College based on the needs of the unit/department, which we continue to assess on an ongoing basis. However, no new employees can be hired outside of the states with payroll tax reciprocity without explicit pre-approval from the Office of Human Resources and Strategic Talent Management (HRSTM).

Talent and Acquisition: Student Worker Extension and Separation for Spring 2025
As the fall semester concludes, please plan for your student workers’ extensions and separations for spring 2025. Managers and supervisors are responsible for processing these updates in Workday.
For Federal Work Study (FWS) students, Financial Aid will contact you directly. Be sure to wait for their continuation notice before extending or separating any FWS assignments.
If your student workers are part of Raptor Central, student recruitment, or the Office of Records and Registration, please reach out to Ms. Nichole Land before taking action.
Job aids are available to assist with the process:
- To extend employment: Ensure the student is registered for at least six (6) credits (12 for international students). Enter 5/23/2025 as the end date for the extension.
- To separate employment: If no action is taken before the assignment end date, the student worker’s employment will automatically end.
