Opportunities for part-time college work-study* and non work-study employment on the Eastern campus are listed on Eastern's Career Services homepage. It is recommended that students take initiative and visit on-campus employers in areas of interest. To be eligible to work, students must have regular student status and be enrolled for 12 or more credit hours per term. Graduate students must be enrolled for 9 or more credit hours. Part-time students must obtain permission to work from the Payroll Manager.

To obtain on-campus employment, the following easy steps are necessary:

1. Review the listings on the Career Services homepage.
2. Contact employers and secure a position.
3. Go to the Payroll Office, Inlow 205, and sign up for payroll. Bring identification including a social security card, and one other picture ID; for example, a valid driver's license; a current passport; etc. Fill out appropriate payroll papers. A sticker will then be issued for your student ID card. If you have previously held a job on campus contact Payroll to verify you are still active in the system, W4 status and current address.
4. Report for work.
