Student Employee Supervisors General Information
The Student Employment Program runs from fall semester to fall semester of each academic year. Job postings are removed at the end of July, and the job postings for the next academic year are posted at the beginning of August. Budgeted student employees must be enrolled in at least 6 credit hours for the fall and spring semesters and 3 credit hours for the summer semester. Work-study student employees must be enrolled in at least 6 credit hours for the fall, spring and summer semesters. Student employees earn $8.25 per hour.
If you are hiring a work-study student employee, you must obtain a copy of the student's Federal Work-Study Placement Award and their academic schedule from the student before hire. Work-study student employees only can work during the duration of the length of their course(s). See the Understanding Work-Study Student Employment sheet for further information regarding the length of time a student can be employed.
Work-Study Student Employment
Work-study student employees may only work while classes are in session and cannot work during holiday breaks or spring break.
For example:
| Session | Start Date | End Date |
|---|---|---|
| On-campus credit classes | Jan. 14 | May 17 |
| Session | Start Date | End Date |
|---|---|---|
| Three-week pre-session | May 20 | June 9 |
| Eight-week session | June 10 | Aug. 2 |
| First four-week session | June 10 | July 7 |
| Second four-week session | July 8 | Aug. 2 |
| Session | Start Date | End Date |

If you would like your work-study student employee to work additional hours before their class starts, during winter or spring break, or after their class ends, then you must contact the Job Resource Center, (708) 974-5737, to switch them to a budgeted student employee, under your departmental budget. It is the responsibility of the supervisor to monitor start and end dates.
