勤工助学

勤工俭学是一种 基于需求的经济援助计划 that allows students to work and earn money for their educational expenses. Pitzer为美国学生提供联邦工作学习.S. Citizens and eligible non-citizens who demonstrate financial need. Institutional Work Study is available for inter国家 students who demonstrate financial need.


资格

Work-study 资格 is determined during the review of the student’s financial aid application. All students who apply for need-based financial aid are 自动考虑勤工俭学, regardless of whether they received, declined or used work-study in prior years.

  • Students are encouraged to accept their work-study, even if they do not intend to work.
  • Students must accept their work-study by completing the 自助协议.
  • Students cannot request an increase to their work-study allotment.
  • Students cannot reinstate their work-study after it has been declined.
  • 勤工俭学必须挣来. There are no consequences or payments owed if work-study is not earned.
  • Students are not eligible for work-study while studying abroad. 然而, they receive additional grant assistance during their abroad semester to replace their work-study funds.

半工半读的分配

A student’s 资格 is determined by various factors including their financial need. First-year students have a maximum allotment of $2,500. Returning students have a maximum allotment of $3,000. All inter国家 students have an allotment of $2,400.

All students receive notification of their 资格 through their financial aid notification letter. For incoming students, this letter is released electronically during the admission decision process. For returning students, this letter is posted to your 学生门户 整个夏天.


勤工俭学的好处

Work-study functions like any other job and you must be hired and work to earn this portion of your aid. While work-study does not guarantee students on-campus employment, supervisors are encouraged to hire work-study recipients. Students with work-study are also able to work for approved off-campus organizations and get paid up to their work-study allotment.

In addition, the portion of your on-campus earnings that are considered ‘work-study earnings’ are “受保护”以获得未来的经济援助 资格. 参见下文收益对未来援助的影响.


监控分配

Most students with work-study do not need to monitor their work-study allotment. 学生的工资由他们所在的院系支付, and it is the department’s responsibility to ensure they have enough funds in their student employment budget to pay their student employees.

然而, students who work with approved off-campus organizations (i.e. Claremont Colleges Libraries, Uncommon Good, etc.) must monitor their work-study earnings (as this is the source of their pay). Students that work for these organizations will receive email reminders from the Office of 金融援助 with updates regarding their work-study allotment.

What happens if I earn more than my allotment?

If you earn more than your allotment AND you work for an off-campus employer, you will be asked to stop working and your supervisor will be notified. Their department will be responsible for the repayment of any excess funds above your work-study allotment.

如果我有多份工作怎么办?

Students with multiple jobs do not need to worry about their work-study allotment unless one of their employers is an off-campus department. 看到 找工作 for a list and breakdown of all employers.

收益对未来援助的影响

Students are required to report all earnings (from all jobs) on their financial aid application, including those earned from working at Pitzer (through work-study or non-work-study). 然而, work-study earnings are protected when determining financial aid 资格. 例如, 如果你赚了6美元,到2022年,这一数字将达到2万美元,这些收入中有1万是勤工俭学, your aid 资格 will only be based on earnings of $4,000 vs. $6,000.

收益 exceeding your work-study allotment may have an impact on your financial aid 资格. We encourage you to speak with our office if you have significant earnings above your allotment or outside of work-study to see how they may affect your financial aid 资格.
