Student Employment

NOTE:

Direct Deposit Policy Change Effective August 1, 2008

 Any employee hired or rehired on or after August 1, 2008 will be required to receive their net pay by electronic deposit.  This direct deposit will be to the employee’s bank of choice or any debit/pay card including the Commonwealth’s EPPICARD.  This policy includes faculty, classified, wage, graduate assistants, work study, resident directors and any other employee hired that will be receiving more than one pay check.  For more information on this new policy or the EPPICARD contact Cindy Eller at extension 7610, or email at celler@radford.edu. 

The Student Employment Program at Radford University offers a valuable experience for students.  Students work on campus twelve hours per week.  For the 2008-09 academic year, students will earn $6.55 per hour and will work a total of 180 hours per semester or 360 hours per academic year.

Students learn valuable skills that will help them become excellent employees.  Student employment allows students to  meet and work with staff, faculty, and administrators across campus.  Students become an integral part of the university community.  The student employment experience can help build an excellent  resume.

The majority of positions are offered to students who establish need through the Free Application For Federal Student Aid.  However, positions are available to any student after the second week of classes Fall semester.  Students who establish need are given first priority for any positions that may be available.

Some of the work positions are part of our community service project.  Students in these positions support the university's service to the community and in some cases include tutoring  local children.

Students who are interested in working on the student employment program should file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid by March 1 prior to the academic year.  For the 2008-09 academic year, priority is given to students who establish need and file before March 1, 2008.

If the student is eligible, student employment will be one of the awards offered to the student on their award letter.  Students may begin contacting supervisors after June 15 for the Fall and Spring semester.

Supervisors will notify the Financial Aid Office of students they desire to hire.  Contracts and other paperwork will be sent to the supervisors for students to complete.

Beginning with the second week of classes, student employment jobs are open to any student who wants to work.  Students hired after the second week of classes do not have to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). 

Jobs will be posted throughout the semester.  Students should check the job listings periodically.

Summer jobs are available to students who are taking at least 6 hours in summer school.  Students must complete a summer financial aid application.  Priority is given to those who establish need and have filed a summer application before March 1. 

Students who have established need through the results of the FAFSA are always given priority for any positions available.
