Student Information
General Information
Campus based federal, state, and university programs provide campus employment, which allows students an opportunity to earn money to help meet their cost of education. Students are paid on a biweekly basis for the hours worked in the previous two weeks. Work study earnings are not deducted from the student's charges. However, the student may make a payment to the University to reduce the balance due. Students are able to work a maximum of 20 hours a week when enrolled in classes.
