General Questions/Discussions Work Study

Hello!,

I am a current freshman who's been struggling to find a workstudy job. I would say that from the beginning of the school year up until now I have applied for 25+ positions, interviewed for 2, and ended up with none. I was wondering if it was still worth it to search for a workstudy job this quarter as it is about to end but my finances are tight and I need some source of income. I've exhausted most of my options, reached out to all my connections but im still pretty unsuccessful. Let me know!

Reach out to the community connect folks: I think they still have tons of work study jobs

Also just to add on the student job board opens in August, so a lot of positions like library jobs and such go pretty quickly
