Whether you work two hours a week or 20, it can make a big difference in helping pay for your education — not to mention enriching your studies. And national research shows that students who work part-time while in college perform better academically.

All University of Dayton students, regardless of financial need, may apply for University-funded employment opportunities on campus. Positions are available in most on-campus departments. Hourly wage is based on experience and job description but starts at Ohio's minimum rate wage. Students will receive a bi-monthly paycheck to apply to their expenses, as needed.

Federal work study is awarded to those undergraduates who demonstrate financial need and positions are available in most on-campus departments. To see if you're eligible for this type of employment, complete the FAFSA so results can be to the University by May 1.
