  • Work part-time, on-campus with flexible hours to fit your schedule

About Work Study

Work Study is a type of financial aid -- financed through state or federal funds -- that allows students to work part-time on campus in a department of their choice (depending on job availability). Students work from five to 20 hours per week during the school year and up to 30 hours per week during the summer. To be considered for a Work-Study position, complete your application for Financial Aid early. Your application must demonstrate financial need.
