Financial Aid
Employment
National studies indicate that college students who work part time find it beneficial not only in supplementing finances, but also in learning skills such as time management. They also remain in school at a rate significantly higher than nonworking students, according to a U.S. Department of Education survey. Earnings for the following employment programs are paid biweekly to the student and are not applied to University invoice costs.
