Earn a Degree While Working Full Time
More students are beginning college when they’re older, returning to college after a break, and maintaining full-time employment or caring for their children while working toward a degree. Here are 5 strategies for successfully working full time while earning a degree!
Searching for a student employment position at APU is similar to obtaining employment with other organizations. You can search and apply for on-campus jobs through the Handshake platform. The Office of Student Employment can offer guidance throughout the process and will ensure that all hire-related documentation is obtained and accurate in accordance with California and federal employment law and practice through our onboarding system, SilkRoad.
Before you begin your job search:
- Verify that you meet the Eligibility Requirements (PDF) for working on campus.
- Have original identification necessary to obtain employment. Photocopies of identification will not be accepted. View the List of Acceptable Documents for Hire (PDF).
- Review Student Employment Pay Scale 2024 (PDF).
Job search steps:
Upon hire, all student employees will be required to complete Campus SaVE, FERPA, and Sexual Harassment Prevention Training. Time spent completing these online training sessions is paid time. Please include this time on your electronic time card.
The Office of Student Employment at Azusa Pacific University, in compliance with the law and in order to provide a God-honoring work environment that encourages respect and esteem for each member of the community, requires Campus SaVE, FERPA, and Sexual Harassment Prevention Training at least every two years (within two weeks of hire) for all faculty, staff, and student employees at all APU locations. This policy is consistent with valuing the safety and comfort of each employee and striving to create respectful, productive workplace dynamics across all offices and departments.
AB 1825, California’s mandatory sexual harassment training law (codified at Cal. Lab. Code § 12950.1), was adopted by the California legislature in 2004. Starting on January 1, 2006, all employers with 50 or more employees were required to provide at least two hours of sexual harassment training once every two years for supervisors located in the state of California.
Federal Work Study
Federal work-study is a need-based government program granted to students who qualify. Students must work on campus to receive the federal work-study award.
Award money is included in the student’s paycheck, not credited to the student’s APU tuition account. Qualified recipients must seek employment on campus or the funds will be removed from their financial aid. Department managers and supervisors will make every attempt to hire a federal work-study recipient according to their qualifications, skills, and career goals. Certain departments are not qualified to pay under this program.
Contact the Student Services Center for more information about federal work-study.
