Check in with your department administrator and complete the steps for new hires outlined by University Human Resources. These include entering your personal information in Workday, activating your new Brown ID number, completing Form I-9, setting up direct deposit, and making your benefits elections.

In addition to completing the steps required by University Human Resources, ask your department administrator to help arrange any building key or card access you may need.

Please note, Brown University’s health insurance plans require that you elect coverage within 31 days of your start date. You can find more information about your options for health insurance under the Benefits section of this website. Please email the Benefits Office if you have any questions or concerns about your health insurance enrollment.
