Work study is a form of employment at your college that can either be applied directly to paying your tuition balance or you can receive a paycheck normally depending on the type of work study. At King's, these positions are offered in a part-time capacity up to 10 hours per week in academics, athletics, administrative offices, the library, the information technology department, science labs, and more. These roles not only help offset educational expenses but also give students practical skills, workplace experience, and opportunities to build professional connections.
Federal Work Study
To apply for work study jobs at King's College, you must present an original document verifying your Social Security Number, such as your Social Security card, birth certificate, or United States passport with your state-issued ID.
You are eligible for federal work study jobs if your current Financial Aid Offer letter or award notice on Self-Service includes a Federal Work Studyoffer. If you are eligible, you may search for job opportunities. Once a position is identified, you and the identified supervisor must complete the entire work study packet and the appropriate work study application.
Institutional Work Study
If you are not eligible for federal work study, your identified supervisor will need to approve your eligibility for an Institutional Work Study position. Once a position is identified, both you and the identified supervisor must complete the entire institutional work study packet and the appropriate work study application. Once both are completed, they must be submitted to the Office of Financial Aid for review.
International Students
Additional documents are required for international students. Please contact the Office of International Student Services at internationalservices@kings.edufor the appropriate documents.
