Financial Aid

College Work Study

Students with limited family resources, as determined by the results of the FAFSA, are provided this federally–funded opportunity to earn “spending money” through part–time, on–campus employment.

To apply for a student work position, students need to visit the HR employment page, and look for any positions that say “student work” at the beginning. After applying for positions, the Human Resources staff will verify with the Financial Aid office that the student meets the requirements to qualify for a student work position.

Most student work positions are 16-20 hours a week. Students may not work more than 20 hours per week. The salary is minimum wage, and students will be paid via direct deposit on the 7th and 22nd of each month. To be eligible for student work, students must be enrolled in at least 6 credit hours in the fall and spring semesters, have a FAFSA on file, and maintain a minimum 2.0 GPA.

A job is not guaranteed, and you are not guaranteed to earn your entire award.
