Students receive wages for their work-study job at each monthly payroll period. They may choose to apply the earnings directly to their student account or bank account, or pick up a payroll check to use the earnings for other education-related expenses, including personal expenses and books. Students are paid only for hours worked. Any unearned work-study award is forfeited. Priority in jobs is given to students receiving financial aid.
Some students work on campus without regard to financial aid eligibility.
They are paid from the college s own funds. Students receiving federal or state work-study should seek out employment opportunities within the first block of the semester. Campus jobs are available in the first block of each semester only to work-study eligible students. After that time students not receiving aid are eligible to be hired. All students must present a Student Employment Referral Form from the Financial Aid Office to prospective on-campus employers to be hired.
