Considerations in Work-Study


Off-Campus Job Board

Students who choose (or need) to work more than 19 hours per week (the limit for work study employment and on campus jobs) have the option of seeking employment off-campus. The Ellensburg area is small enough most off-campus job sites are within a half-hour walk.

Off-Campus Job Listings and Disclaimers

Disclaimer

Employer contact information is included on each listing and we request employers notify us when a position is filled. If you find a listing that is filled, please let us know so we can remove it. Please contact the Financial Aid office if you experience a problem with an employer included on this job board.

We provide off-campus position postings as a courtesy and make no representations or guarantees about positions posted by this office. All hiring and compensation for work performed by student employees is handled between the student and the employer. The Financial Aid office does not perform background checks on students or employers posting job opportunities.

The Central Washington University Financial Aid office will not post jobs that appear to discriminate against applicants on the basis of race, color, religion, creed, age, national origin, disabled or Vietnam Era veteran status, sexual orientation, disability, or gender. We do not post jobs that require an initial monetary investment from the student.

Some general advice: Beware of opportunities that require a registration fee or initial investment. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! If you have been scammed, contact local law enforcement and the WA State Attorney General's office to report it. See Student Employment for more information.
