Generally students work 5- 10 hours per week. The number of hours will vary according to the department needs and the student's availability.

Hourly Wage
• First year students = $7.25 per hour
• Students who continue after the first year in the same position = $7.75 per hour

Employment Application Review
Jobs will be filled on a first come, first serve basis.
