Can someone please explain the salary that a potential police officer gets while in the Academy? I visited the NYPD Recruit site and saw that while in the academy one's salary is $40,361 but then that amount rises to $43,062 - the same thing occurs at every other point along the time-line provided by the illustration.

It's pretty self explanatory. The reason it is listed as 43,062 is that 40,361 is the base pay, with the extra 2K being longevity pay, uniform allowance, etc. It does not include overtime.

Anyways, the higher paycheck is supposed to be what you get including bonuses, with the lower one being base.

Are those bonuses, while in the academy, perhaps what I mentioned in my previous post:
Having your shift at night & working holidays?
The majority of it is probably to supplement supplies purchased such as the Uniform allowance and anything else you need during the Academy. I could be wrong though.

I remember being told it was either from 7-3 (day) or 4-12 (night). Has that changed?

2 checks a year. its extra pay they give you two times a year. when i was in the academy from july-january we got off christmas day and thanksgiving but you use your own time for it. so those 10 vacation days you get or the chart day u get once a month are used then. every other mon-fri you are working.
