Students may earn a portion of their educational expenses during the school year through the student employment program. Priority is given to undergraduate students who demonstrate financial need. The Financial Aid Office is responsible for determining student award packages, which may include Federal Work Study (FWS) or Dominican Employment (DE).
Students who receive a FWS or DE award are eligible for employment, but are not guaranteed positions on campus. Students that do not receive a FWS or DE award can obtain an on-campus position, but must wait until October 1 before applying for any available positions.
Positions are available in a variety of offices and departments on campus. Position information and application procedures for all on-campus student employment are available through the Human Resources website. Students must complete employment paperwork with Human Resources before beginning work.
Once a job is secured, students receive monthly paychecks, which they may choose to use towards tuition or other expenses.
