We have a merit-point system at ASU for various activities. A
faculty member would receive some number of merit points for
mentoring an independent study student, additional merit-points
if the student is a co-author on a conference presentation,
further additional merit points if the student is a co-author on
a publication.
At the end of the year, the chairperson takes whatever additional
salary money we get from the College of Arts & Sciences and
spreads it among the faculty proportionally according to merit
points.
The merit point count is a running 3-year average to smooth out
counts for variations in state funding year-to-year and to reward
long-term contributions.

The chairperson has the final say on the classification of merit.

Does your institution offer compensation for mentoring independent
research/study students?
If so, how?
Most of our faculty carry several students a year pro-bono but we are
about used up and want to know what other institutions. I tried to
google this but it's not something that generally appears on websites.
