Finding an Off-Campus Job

Students who have been awarded Federal Work-Study (FWS) are eligible to work off campus through the Off-Campus Federal Work-Study Program by a federal, state, or local public agency, or by a private nonprofit organization.  Students working through this Program are employees of ɬÀï·¬ÏÂÔØ and will be paid directly by the University.  Students with available FWS funds and/or qualifying organizations interested in participating in this Program should refer to Information for Employers for more information and process for approval. This is not a cost-free program for the agency.

Local public agencies including city or county governmental offices, public schools, community-owned hospitals, public libraries, community centers as well as private, nonprofit organizations can be considered for a work-study contract with ɬÀï·¬ÏÂÔØ.

Organizations recognized as nonprofit under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code qualify for Work-Study eligibility. Examples of private nonprofit organizations include colleges and universities, hospitals, day care centers, halfway houses, crisis centers, and summer camps. Work for sectarian (religious) organizations is permitted, but the work must be in the public interest and cannot in any way support sectarian ends.

Other Off-Campus Jobs

Any student hired for any other off-campus employer not participating in our Off-Campus FWS Program is an employee of that off-campus employer, and payment is a matter between the student and that employer.

ɬÀï·¬ÏÂÔØ is committed to providing information in a manner that is accessible to all. If you are in need of a printed copy of the material presented on this web page, please contact the Office of Student Services.
