Now Hiring Student Workers! On and off campus locations. Expand  your professional network

Student Employment is an important source of financial aid for students. At Cuyahoga Community College, the Work Study program provides meaningful work experiences that develop desired attitudes and habits through varied job experiences resulting in self-confidence and self-sufficiency. The work experience is intended to complement the students’ educational process and to enhance future employment.

Whenever possible the work experience is related to the students’ educational program and career objectives. Student employment not only accommodates students’ needs, but also provides services necessary to the daily operation of the College.

The Work Study program provides employment opportunities on campus and at approved off-site locations. Work Study employment is federally funded and part of your financial aid package. You can review your award through your my Tri-C space to determine if you are eligible, or contact the Student Financial Aid and Scholarships office. Work Study is awarded on a first come first served basis, and you can earn up to $7,500. A Work Study award is NOT a guarantee of employment.

Current positions pay rate begins at $14/hour. 

Checkout Work Study FAQs for more information.

  • Go to the left side margin and scroll down to Full-time or Part-Time. Select “Part-Time”.
  • Positions that starts with “Work-Study Experiment” will appear to the right side. 
  • Click on the position of interest and complete the student employment application.
  • Be in compliance with Tri-C's Satisfactory Academic Progress policy.

For non-campus community service sites, Cuyahoga Community College is the employer administrator of the work-study positions. The Student Financial Aid and Scholarships office researches the off-site facilities to meet the requirements of the federal financial aid program for community service share. Student employees have to meet the terms and conditions of the work-study program to maintain eligibility in off-campus employment. Cuyahoga Community College is an equal employment opportunity institution.
