Payments for Research Participants

Compensating persons to participate in a research project falls under the UMW gift policy. Please review the payment guidelines provided by Accounts Payable.

In addition, several sections of the UMW policy on gift-giving may be relevant, depending on the nature of the research project, the participants involved, and the manner of compensation to be provided.

Direct questions about these procedures to the Accounts Payable Office. They can be reached by phoning 540-654-1226 or by emailing payables@umw.edu.
