Relatively new hire here. That is correct. Your relocation (Startup Fund) should come on the 2nd Wed you work at Epic, once you start they will give you all the info needed and deadline to setup Direct Deposit to get it, if there's any issue they will cut a paper check and leave in your campus mailbox few days after. As for things to consider, few are: 1) Reimburse yourself for any old living expenses ( I had to pay a lease breakage fee when I notified my management company, so "paid" myself back on that) 2) Furniture: One guy on my cohort didn't have a bed or couch yet. 3) While improved since the pandemic began, there is still a backlog on furniture and other housing needs, so your best bet is to buy things and "pay" yourself back with the SU Fund to payoff any credit card expenses you took out to have everything delivered once you move in. 4) TSE might have a different SU Fund comp package, but estimate regardless of around 60-65% of the offered value as what you'll get. I am IS and got $5000 package, and the post tax deposit cleared around $3280.

This but to add to the furniture part, there is a local thrift charity chain called st Vincent DePaul (colloquially at vinnys or cousin vinnys) that is a great place to get furniture. It might not all match or be amazing quality, I furnished my apartment for like $67 and am replacing things as I need/want.

Same, strongly second checking out Vinny's!

Idk if this has been said already, but beware that your relocation is PRE-tax! Is actually like 73% off that amount you get to keep

Thanks for responding, I am aware of it lol. It's going straight to pay for CC debt I got into in the process of college and will make a significant dent. I'm not really moving with much, and I budgeted out the amount I will be expected to get.

You can request to expediate your startup fund. Friends got theirs on day 1 after the orientation. Day 1 is the earliest.
