Earn Money to Help Pay for Educational Expenses
Student employment is an important source of financial aid where you will learn valuable workplace skills. It is a part-time, temporary employment program which provides part-time jobs for undergraduated students, allowing them to earn money to help pay for educational expenses. Employment is contingent on continued eligibility.
Opportunities are available at all campus sites year round.
Available hours are dependent on students’ eligibility and department needs. Approved students work an average of 10-15 hours per week.
Worked hours are submitted online in Webtime.
Students are paid biweekly. Funds are sent directly to the student and are not subtracted from any balance due to SPC.
