Work study

International students are eligible, through the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ work study program, to work on campus for up to $2000 per year if they work their maximum amount of hours under the federal minimum  wage. To reach the maximum allocation, one would need to work  about 6 hours per week. Work study jobs are typically acquired at the beginning of each semester. The positions are based on availability. In figuring money earned through work study into a student’s available financial resources, please keep in mind that ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ provides a substantial amount of support to international students. Adjusting to life in the United States and on campus also factor into determining how many hours a student feels comfortable working.

The rigors of the academics at ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ, among other factors, influence the number of hours a student is able to work; hence, students tend to earn different amounts of money during their time at ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ.

International students work in different departments on campus where the diversity of experiences and energy they bring are greatly appreciated and celebrated.Ìý Members of faculty’s offices, the cafeteria (especially the Burrow), and the science labs are some of the most popular places to work.
