On-Campus Student Employment

May change with new policies.

  • Federal Work Study is a need-based award and will appear on your Award Letter if you are eligible.
  • Michigan Work Study is a need-based award and is granted to Michigan residents only. If you are eligible, it will appear on your Award Letter.
  • Regular student employment is available to students who did not apply for financial aid or who did not qualify for Federal or Michigan Work Study.

Prior to working on campus, the federal I-9 form and federal, State of Michigan and city of Flint W-4 forms must all be completed and on file.*

All job announcements are posted on the On-Campus Job Postings board, which is located outside the Welcome Center. Respond to the Contact Person listed regarding the position(s) in which you are interested.

Time cards completed by you and your department are submitted to Payroll every two weeks. You will be paid bi-weekly in the form of a paycheck for the hours worked during that pay period.

*The federal I-9 form requires proof of your identity and proof of your right to work in the United States. The most common documents used are drivers license and Social Security Card/birth certificate. Other acceptable documents are listed on the back of the I-9 form. Federal, Michigan and Flint withholding forms must also be completely filled out before the first day of work. These documents need to be completed only once. If you have worked at Kettering University before, you are not required to complete these forms again.
