On-Campus Student Employment
Work study money is earned from employment on campus. Students who qualify receive a paycheck every two weeks for the hours worked and may use the earnings to make tuition payments, pay for books and supplies, or pay for personal expenses.
Both Federal University Work Study and Mount Work Study (institutionally funded) provide excellent learning opportunities outside the classroom. Students who participate in either program may choose to work in a variety of on-campus sites. These include: the Office of Student Financing, the Admission Office, various Student Affairs offices, the Library, departmental offices and laboratories. Through “hands on” experiences in these offices, students develop valuable skills which may later translate to professional settings.
