How CSL Works
- Off-campus agencies can advertise for positions through UNI Career Services: How to Post a Job.
- The Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships can determine which students qualify for Federal Work-Study: CSL Request (Word document).
- The agency interviews and selects student(s) for the position.
- The Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships awards Federal Work-Study to eligible student employees.
- The student employee meets with Financial Aid Office staff for set up in UNI payroll.
Students currently working for an organization may also qualify. Contact our office to determine if a student qualifies.
Receiving Federal Work-Study Payments
Your way of receiving pay will differ from the way of receiving other aid such as grants and loans which credit to the U-bill. To receive pay for work study you will record the hours worked and submit time cards on the Oracle E-business site. A link is available through MyUNIverse. Your payment will be directly deposited to your personal bank account.
Students can access their Work-Study Monitoring Report to track their work-study earnings at any time on the Oracle e-business suite where you complete and submit timecards.
