Financial Aid
Student Employment
Through student employment, our students have the opportunity to earn money while gaining experience to prepare them for employment after graduation. There are a variety of openings across campus, as well as some Federal Work Study community service positions with local non-profit organizations. All current openings can be found in the Student Job Book in iRaider under “Quick Links.” Student employment is a great chance to build skills and a resume while providing support to the University and community.
