The number of hours, students are allowed to work are determined by the amount of the award that they receive. The larger the award the more hours students are allowed to work. However, during regular semesters while classes are in session students are not allowed to exceed 25 hrs per week. There is an exception to this rule which applies to students who are on the Service Award Contract. This means that a student has an outstanding balance due to the college which, is being paid through the student working and not receiving a paycheck for their services.
Work performed is credited toward payment of balance due to the college.
In this case students may be able to work in excess of 25 hrs per week. This is increased 0.15 cents each consecutive year of employment. Positions are structured as to give students opportunity to increase work load thus increasing pay. The current wage scale is subject to change. College work study students are paid every two weeks.
