Part-Time JobsWhether it is on or off campus, a part-time job or work-study position can help reduce the financial burden of college, give you career exploration and experience opportunities, and build your professional network.
On-Campus Jobs
On-Campus positions usually offer 12 to 20 hours of work per week. Positions vary from clerical, technical, food service or general labor positions.
Work-Study
Work-Study positions help students with financial needs, allowing them to earn money without impacting financial aid options. Most positions on campus can be filled by work-study recipients. If you find a campus position and the department is unfamiliar with work-study, they should contact Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid, which coordinates the work-study program at OSU.

Off-Campus JobsMany off-campus employers are just as willing to work with college students' schedules as on-campus departments and are able to offer more hours for students needing additional income. Off-campus positions are more varied in their duties than on-campus positions, and may allow you the chance to develop and enhance your skills in your chosen field.
