If a work-study award is part of your financial aid package (see the information you received from Haverford’s Financial Aid Office) it typically comes out to working 8 hours per week.

To help make sure you can fulfill that commitment, the first two weeks of the first semester all campus employers give preference to work-study applicants. It is crucial for work-study students to start the job search early and to apply for jobs during this window! When applying, let the office know that having a campus job is part of your Financial Aid package.

If you encounter any problems with finding an on-campus job, please contact the Center for Career and Professional Advising.

The Center for Career and Professional Advising (CCPA) posts on-campus jobs on the Part-Time Job Board.

How it Works

1. Review the on-campus jobs. Be sure to filter by column for on-campus vs. off-campus jobs.
2. Apply. Each posting contains information about the position, the application process, and the contact person. Be certain to apply to several on campus jobs. This way, if one of the positions gets filled, you will still have other options.
3. Meet with HR. When you are hired, schedule an appointment prior to your first day of work to meet with a representative in the Human Resources office. You must bring the actual I-9 documentation to this appointment for the HR office to view during the on-boarding meeting. Review the list of acceptable I-9 documents (page 3). You must have your original documents—faxes or copies cannot be accepted. If you do not have this documentation, you will not be allowed to work.
