Part-time Employment
On-campus jobs
If you are a full-time first-year or second-year student, and you complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), you may be eligible for Federal College Work-Study. The average annual award is $5,000, requiring that you work approximately 6-10 hours per week.
The University's Office of Financial Aid can assist you in identifying additional on-campus employment opportunities.
Off-campus jobs
Some students choose to work off campus while attending GSSW. The faculty recommends that full-time students not work more than 20 hours per week, while part-time students are sometimes employed full-time.
In either case, you will need to keep your work hours flexible to successfully complete your program requirements.
