OSFS Student Employment Programs

The Office of Student Financial Services (OSFS) has many interesting jobs available for students with and without financial need. Students who demonstrate financial need may be eligible to be paid from Federal Work-study (FWS) funds. Students without financial need may be eligible to be paid from Institutional Student Employment (ISEP) funds. Earnings from these on campus positions help students to pay their educational and living expenses. 

Students apply for positions that interest them and campus employers select the most qualified candidates. Employers assign an hourly pay rate from an approved pay range and every two weeks students receive paychecks based on their hours worked. One big advantage of FWS funds is that FWS earnings can never reduce your eligibility for financial aid during the following academic year. Earnings from ISEP funds and all other off-campus employment can sometimes reduce your eligibility for aid for the following academic year.

Job listings are now open for students with 2008-2009 FWS or ISEP awards. 

Program Benefits:

  • Gain valuable professional experience
  • Flexible work schedules allow you to schedule work around your class times
  • Convenient locations: Earn where you learn and reduce your travel time
  • Competitive Pay

Program Requirements:

  • The 2008-2009 awards may be earned from 7/1/08 thru 6/30/09. 
  • You will receive a paycheck every two weeks based exclusively on your hourly wage and your hours worked. 
  • Your total earnings cannot exceed your award amount. There is no guarantee that you will earn your full FWS award amount.
  • Earnings are usually limited to 20 hours per week.
  • To earn funds during the fall and spring terms, you must usually enroll for at least 6 credits per term.
  • You don’t have to take summer classes to work during the summer as long as you plan to enroll at AACC during the following fall term. 
  • Your FWS or ISEP award amount represents your maximum authorized earnings for the 2008-2009 award period (7/1/2008 to 6/30/2009). Your actual earnings will depend exclusively on your hourly wage and the number of hours you work each week. 
  • You cannot earn FWS funds from AACC after you graduate from AACC, unless you will be pursuing an additional degree or certificate here from AACC.
  • Once we reach our hiring limits, we will not be able to hire any more students. (All existing student employees will continue to work and earn.)

Applying for FWS or ISEP funding:

Awarding Process:

  • FWS funds are automatically awarded to all eligible students and are listed on each student’s AACC Award Notice. To check your AACC awards on-line, login to MyAACC. 
  • ISEP funds are not automatically awarded. Contact our office to request funding.
