You may work up to twenty (20) hours per week. NOTE: Federal Work-Study earning should be monitored by both the employing department and the student to ensure that earnings do not exceed the work-study allocation. Student employees will need to log into the online HRMS to track their hours.
You will earn the minimum hourly wage. Your paychecks are processed bi-weekly and funds earned may be used to pay your educational expenses.
After you have secured employment, your supervisor will give you further hiring instructions and provide you with the exact date you may begin working under the FWS Program. NOTE: New students must complete a New Hire Packet at Employee Services and receive an Employee ID Number before the Financial Aid Office can initiate the job hire process in HRMS. This must be initiated by the supervisor..

The student should not begin working until the hiring process is complete.
You the supervisor will be responsible for informing the student when they can begin work.
