Student employment provides ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ students with the opportunity to work in paying on-campus positions to help fund their education. These jobs also give students the chance to enhance work-related skills in a professional environment. Student employment is not meant to be the sole source of financial support for a student, nor is it considered part-time employment. It is a form of financial assistance.
Steps to Apply for Student Employment
- Students interested in a Work-Study position must complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and receive an award letter before applying for work-study positions. (Not necessary for Student Worker positions.)
- Go to ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ’s job posting platform, , to search for student employment opportunities — work-study and student worker positions. Once you are logged into your account, in the “Jobs” section, type “ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ” in the search box and available jobs will be shown. Each posting will have instructions for how to apply.

Types of Student Employment
Work-Study
Students with need based eligibility may apply for a ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ Work-Study position. The Financial Aid Office determines if a student is eligible based on information from the SAR (Student Aid Report). The SAR is generated once the student has completed and submitted the FAFSA. Students must meet Satisfactory Academic Progress standards to qualify. The funds for this program are paid by the federal government, state government, and ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ.
Student Worker
Student Workers do not have to meet the ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ Work-Study need-based eligibility standards. However, all student employees must meet ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ Satisfactory Academic Progress standards. The funds for this program come from ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ and, therefore, only students with very specialized skills are hired as Student Workers. Offices or departments may hire students, as their needs require and funds allow, with the approval of their respective Dean or Manager.
Student eTimesheet System
ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ is pleased to announce a new electronic timesheet system for student employees. The Student eTimesheet System will replace the paper student timesheets.
Timesheets
In order to receive your paycheck, you must submit a timesheet for each period worked. To do so, complete the following steps:
- Follow the listing of pay periods on the Student Employment Pay Periods schedule.
- Go to the .
- Remember to Clock In and Clock Out daily to keep an accurate account of your hours worked.
- Submit timesheet to supervisor/departmental administrator for approval by the due date on the Pay Schedule.
Your paycheck may be delayed if an incomplete or incorrect timesheet is submitted.

Student Employment Handbook
This Student Employment Handbook has been prepared as a set of guidelines in the hiring and supervision of ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ student employees. It also presents an overview of supervisor expectations. This manual is not exhaustive and any department hiring student employees may have additional standards and guidelines, not explicitly defined in this manual. It is the supervisor’s responsibility to clearly state the expectations within this manual, as well as all expectations specific to the job for which the student is hired.
ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ pays student employees bi-weekly. The Student Employment Payroll Calendar lists pay periods, timesheet submission due dates, and pay dates. Each pay period starts on a Wednesday and ends on a Tuesday. To ensure that student employees receive their paychecks on time, students and supervisors should electronically submit their timesheets by noon on the timesheet submission due date listed on the Student Employment Payroll Calendar. A reminder email will also be sent to all student employees the morning timesheets are due.
Students may work up to 20 hours per week, 40 hours per pay period.
