The Aggie Way Engagement Program is a universitywide initiative focused on recognizing faculty and staff who lead by example and live out the Aggie Core Values. The program, which has grown from its initial inception in the Texas A&M School of Medicine, will launch phase one on Sept. 1 focusing on academic units. Phase two will fold in administrative and centralized divisions throughout the fall 2023 and spring 2024 terms. Be a part of raising awareness of the things Aggies do every day that makes Texas A&M, Texas A&M.

Did you know that in addition to processing biweekly and monthly payrolls, the university’s payroll team oversees formal employment verification for active and former employees, including employment and salary, state service and public service loan forgiveness? Employment and income verification is often needed when buying or renting a home, buying or leasing a car or applying for a loan. Texas A&M uses an automated service that provides you with the ability to quickly provide proof of your employment or income.
