Part-Time Employment

Federal Work Study

A student’s financial aid may contain a federal work-study award, which is funded primarily by the federal government and administered by Simmons. These awards are made based upon need and a student responding ‘yes’ to having interest in work study on the FAFSA. A work-study award does not guarantee a job, but it offers the student an opportunity to apply and interview for a desired position.

Part-time General Employment

Simmons University also funds general employment to provide employment both on and off campus. General employment is available to students regardless of financial need.

Through either source of funding, a student may work up to 20 hours per week in either on- or off-campus positions. Students receive a bi-weekly paycheck for hours worked. Students interested in all types of work opportunities should visit Student Employment.
