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.
