Federal Work-Study and
Campus Employment
Both employment programs provide funds for part-time, on campus work. Most
students working on campus are Federal Work Study eligible. A limited amount
of Federal Work Study funding will be available for off-campus community service
work approved by the college.
A variety of work opportunities are available with most awards ranging
from $500-$1500 (4-12 hours per week). Federal Work Study positions
pay the federal minimum wage or more, with payment to the student
made monthly, based on the hours worked in the previous month. Funds
are awarded based on financial need, skills related to work, and
availability of funds. Preference is given to students who show the
greatest need, have met the March 15th Priority Date, and have completed
the interview selection process.
First-time students receiving Federal Work Study will be assigned
a campus job prior to enrollment. Students who have been awarded
Federal Work Study funds will be expected to complete an employment
application in order to receive a job assignment. Current campus
employment recipients are required to individually pursue their own
employment for the following academic year.
There are a limited number of institutional funded positions available
to students without regard to a student’s need. Please contact
the Information Center Coordinator at 426- 7387 for Federal Work
Study and institutionally funded job postings.
