Who Is Eligible

Upper-class Students on financial aid with work study or campus job portion of their award have first priority for all campus jobs.

These students have been offered a work study opportunity by the college to meet their need for aid and campus employers have an obligation to ensure that they have that opportunity. Students can check their own Work-Study eligibility on their Banner Web account. It is the student's responsibility to locate her own campus job to fulfill this portion of her aid package. In an effort to offer work study students a wide range of options, employers are asked to advertise any available student jobs with the Student Employment Office for at least two weeks before considering a student who does not have work study. (This period is extended for the entire month of September when school opens in the fall.)

Traditional age first year students do not have priority for campus jobs outside those offered in the Job Fair at the opening of school. They generally work in Dining Services, Building Services, at the Campus Center or as part of the America Reads/America Counts Tutoring Program. Others who do not have priority for regular campus jobs include:

* Graduate students

* Students who have been offered a loan only as financial aid

* Students who receive no financial aid at all

* Students already holding STRIDE, various Intern, Head Resident, House Coordinator or House Community Advisor positions

In some years there are plenty of jobs available for all students, whether on aid or not, but that changes from semester to semester and also depends upon the economy, budget, etc. Because our primary obligation is to provide work-study jobs to those found eligible for Work-Study, we ask your cooperation in adhering to the College's policy.
