The student and the supervisor should be aware of the hours that a student is available to work per week. Students can get this information by contacting the Student Employment Office. This calculation does not include January term. Students are not allowed to work more than 8 hours per day and 20 hours per week when classes are in session. During breaks such as January, spring break, and winter break all students may work up to 40 hours per week.
Work done during breaks is considered part of a student's financial aid award.
Only summer work is not subject to the restrictions of financial aid eligibility. Students are allowed one paid 15-minute break for every four consecutive hours of work. If students are working an eight hour day they are entitled to an unpaid 30-minute lunch break.
