Free Student Worker Help!!

Does your office need student workers to assist with the daily functions of the department? Here’s how we can help!

Federal Work Study:

Federally funded program that employs over 260 students per year!
Participates work based on their FWS Award amount.
In order to receive FWS students, you must first submit request to fws@odu.edu
Once approved, departments can post positions on CareerLink (we can help with this!)
Students apply to departmental positions, and supervisors can choose who to hire out of a candidate pool after Interview and Selection process
(Only those students awarded FWS, can apply to your position posted)
The minimum pay rate is $7.25 per hour, however supervisors set pay rate for students based on E1S standards
Remember it’s completely free to your department!

Learn and Earn Advantage Program (LEAP):

LEAP aims to employ students in their Freshmen (LEAP1) and Sophomore (LEAP2) year within a career related position
Students must first be awarded LEAP in their financial aid package
In order to request LEAP students, follow the link to submit a job description for your LEAP student https://odu.co1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_6oncV7PznSyGmnH
LEAP 1 students earn $8 per hour, and as a LEAP 2 student earn $9 per hour
Students work around 8-15 hours per week.
Remember, it’s completely free to your department!
