Class Enrollment:
In order to work on campus as a student employee, you must be enrolled in at least one class during the semester in which you will be working. If a student employee withdrawals from the University he/she must cease working the actual date of the official withdrawal.

I-9 Packet:
Any employee at the University is required by federal law to establish their identity and eligibility for employment by completing an employment packet. This packet contains Immigration and Naturalization Service Form; Selective Service Form; and the State and Federal withholding forms, Direct Deposit, Student Profile and Confidentiality Agreement form. This packet must be completed before any student can begin work. Students who have not completed this packet will not be allowed to begin their position.

To complete this packet the student must bring one of the following documents: original Social Security card, Birth Certificate, Permanent Resident card, or US Passport and picture identification. These verification documents comply with IRS Regulations and the hiring requirements of the University.

The employment packet may be completed (if authorized) in an employing department/office or in the On-Campus Student Employment Office during normal business hours from 8:00 am – 5:00pm Monday – Friday.

International students who are attending the University on an F-1 Visa or a J-1 Visa must complete their employment packet in the International Programs Office located in the College of Health and Human Services building, room 202.

Hours Students May Work
Students who work on campus are employed to perform duties that complement, not replace, full-time employees. The student's first responsibility and priority is their academic success. Since the student's class schedule and academic responsibility must dictate his/her work schedule, students can not work more than 20 hours a week, when classes are in session.

Students are not permitted to work during class time. In the event that your class is canceled, you may contact your employing department to see if additional work time is available.

Students may work two or more on-campus jobs concurrently (Federal Work Study and/or Student Temporary Wage). The combined total hours can not exceed 20 hours a week, when classes are in session or 40 hours a week when classes are not in session.

Job References:
All students are evaluated on their work performance. These evaluations are placed in student’s employment folder and are used for work references. All students can be terminated from their position for and of the following reasons, but not limited to this list: poor job performance, dishonest practices, breech of confidentiality, or failure to report to work. If you are terminated for any reason this may affect your future employment at the University.
