Like Student Employment, workstudy employees are paid on an hourly basis and receive weekly paychecks. Because workstudy is limited, not all interested qualified applicants will be able to be funded. Preference is given to students who make prior arrangements with a potential employer to be considered for a position. Students wishing to be considered should submit a workstudy application that can be downloaded or obtained from the School for the Arts Office of Financial Aid. Because both workstudy and student employees are paid weekly, it is not possible to subtract your compensation directly from your bill.
Students typically use their pay to help defray their living expenses.
Graduate Assistants Both International and Domestic students are eligible to be considered for Graduate Assistantships. Each Division makes its own decision on to whom to offer a position. Please note that there are not enough positions to offer positions to all accepted applicants. Graduate Assistantships can under some circumstances be subtracted from your Student Accounting Invoice. If you are paid on a monthly basis, you may elect to have the value of your assistantship directly subtracted from your bill.
