To participate, you must be awarded either an Occidental Work Award or Federal Work-Study as part of your financial aid package. Work awards contribute more than financial assistance to your college education. In an increasingly competitive job market, employers want applicants who have both work and academic experience. Thc amount of your work award is based on the number of semesters we anticipate you will be attending. Therefore, your work award should be earned during the entire academic year and should not be earned within a few months.
Work is available through on-campus departments.
This amount may be higher in some departments based on job requirements. You may have more than one job. It is important to select one or more jobs that will provide you with enough hours to earn the total amount of your award. You may not, however, earn more than your total eligibility. Obtain a copy of the Occidental College Student Employment Handbook for specific information regarding jobs on campus.
