Summer 2001 Student Employment

Karen Fooks, Director

The Student Employment Section will begin issuing summer work permits to students employed through the Other Personnel Services (OPS) and Federal Work-Study (FWS) programs on April 16, 2001. If you will be employing OPS and FWS students for the summer term, please have them come to the student employment counter in S-107 Criser Hall to pick up their work permits as soon as possible, beginning also on or after April 16, 2001. They may also use the Phone-in-Work Permit Service (392-0296). Students must provide the employing department’s campus mailing address in order for the work permit to be mailed. No work permits will be faxed. Please do not allow a student to work without a work permit.

The guidelines for working as a student employee for the summer are as follows:

1.  Register at least half-time;

a.	Undergraduates, 6 credits
	Summer A = 3 credits	Summer A only = 6 credits
	Summer B = 3 credits	Summer B only = 6 credits
	Summer C = 6 credits
b.	Graduate, 4 credits
	Summer A = 2 credits	Summer A only = 4 credits
	Summer B = 2 credits	Summer B only = 4 credits
	Summer C = 4 credits

If the student is registered for less than half-time, the employing department must appoint the student on temporary OPS through University Personnel Services.

2.  Students may petition to work more than 20 hours per week. However, students may not work during scheduled classes or exams without written approval using a class dismissal form.

3.  Students must have a cumulative GPA of 2.00 or greater, or they may petition for special approval due to extenuating circumstances.

If you have any questions, please contact the Student Employment Section at 392-0296.
