College Work Study

 

Federal Work-Study

  

Eligibility


Hiring Students

Student employment is applied for through at the Financial Aid Office. Before any student can be hired the following is required:

The student must have applied for Financial Aid and be ready for awarding.
An application for Student Employment must be submitted to the Student Employment Coordinator. Students must submit a new application for each Fall/Spring and Summer I/II award period.

When a student qualifies for Work-Study and the student has been placed in a job, a new award letter is generated. The offered amount, which may be earned, is indicated on the financial aid award letter. The awarding of employment under the Work-Study Program is not placement in a job, just the eligibility of money for a job.  The department is responsible for hiring students to fill job openings.

Employment Procedures

All students must apply for employment through the Student Employment Office if they wish to participate in the College Work-Study Program or Part-Time program. An application for employment is completed to determine qualifications. The employment coordinator will review the employment application to determine if the student can be referred on a CWS or part-time jobs. The student will be referred to a CWS job only if he/she meets the Federal Guidelines.
