Employment on campus
There are a number of ways for students to gain valuable work
experience while earning a few extra dollars to pay the bills and enjoy
campus life. Opportunities for students to work include:
• Federal Work Study is awarded to full-time registered students
who demonstrate financial need as determined by their FAFSA.
Eligible students are able to select from a wide range of positions,
including jobs in Residential Life, Athletics, and various Adminis-
trative oces. Students also have the option to work o campus in
a Community Service capacity. Generally, students work between
6-8 hours a week but can work a maximum of 20 hours per week.
Currently, students are paid the minimum wage set by the State
of Connecticut. Students are not permitted to work in multiple
Federal Work Study positions.
• Institutional Student Employment (Non-Federal Work Study)
is oered by individual oces and departments to registered
students. Non-Federal Work Study students are paid on a weekly
basis and may work up to 20 hours per week. Students with multi-
ple jobs are still held to the 20 hours a week maximum.
