Why You May not find St. John's on the U.S. News and World Report Rankings Parents Association . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The Santa Fe campus has recently redoubled its efforts to provide opportunities for students to offset a considerable portion of their educational costs through their own work. Many of the jobs are held by students who qualify for financial aid, though a job can generally be found for any student who wants one and who proves capable. The work program is administered by the Placement Office.
Thoughtful supervision is provided to teach students the meaning of a job well done.
By working at the college students gain a practical balance to the intensive academic program. In the process they actively strengthen our community. The jobs are designed not only to offset the cost of education, but also to teach useful skills and provide experiences that will help students into the world of work once they have graduated. As a result costs can be held down and the students take genuine pride in their contributions to the quality of life on campus. It is no accident that it is the Placement Office that supervises the work study program.
