Undergraduate and graduate students with work-study jobs will work part-time on or off campus while enrolled.
I understand. Does that mean I'll work on or off campus?
Both.
Do you want to work on campus?
Yes, that'd be great.
In that case you'll usually work for your school.
Makes sense. And what if I was working off campus?
Then your employer will usually be a private nonprofit organization or a public agency, and the work performed must be in the public interest.
So what kind of jobs can I get?
The Federal Work-Study Program emphasizes employment in civic education and work related to your course of study whenever possible.
What if I attend a proprietary school, a paid one for example?
