Spring Quarter 2022
Employers should submit their Employee Evaluations by May 31st!
Winter Break 2021 and Winter Quarter 2022
Students may work in person or remotely over winter recess on the condition that they will be enrolled at least half-time (2.0 units) the immediate following quarter. Earnings count toward a student's total work-study allotment and therefore may result in the student not being able to work the full academic year under work-study wages. No special or supplemental hourly wages are assessed for holidays. If a student will be working remotely during Winter Recess, they must receive proper supervision of their work and certification that they have worked and earned their hours, follow all applicable institutional protocols for teleworking, and follow federal, state, and local employment conditions.
At the discretion of your area's department lead, students may work remotely or in person during Wildcat Welcome in January depending on operational needs.
