Additional On-Campus Employment Outside of Graduate Assistantship Duties

Graduate students pursuing additional on-campus employment, in addition to their graduate assistantship, must obtain prior approval from the college of Graduate Studies before they start working, by filing out the "Request for Additional On-Campus Employment" form.
Forms can be submitted to College of Graduate Studies, Room3190; prior to beginning additional employment.

The main focus of graduate students with assistantships is to work full or part time towards their degree; which depends on enrollment requirements for the assistantship. Exceptions will be made only for assignments of short duration; per semester; if student has a minimum GPA of 3.0. All forms submitted after student starts working additional employment will be denied.

Domestic Students - may work a total of 24-25 hours per week; including graduate assistantship; during the calendar year.

International Students- may work a total of 20 hours per week during the academic year (Fall and Spring Semesters) and 28 hours per week during Summer semester; including graduate assistantship.
