Working On Campus (Work Study)

I am a HUMBER COLLEGE STUDENT looking for work on campus

If you are an International student, please click here.

Work Study Program:

If you are a full-time, domestic student in financial need, you may be eligible for a part-time Work Study job right on campus. It's a great way to gain valuable work experience, connect with others in the Humber College community, and stay on top of your finances- with hours that will fit your schedule.

To qualify for Work Study approval, you must:

  • Be a Domestic student (Permanent Resident, Canadian Citizen, or Protected Person) currently enrolled in studies.
  • Demonstrate financial need.
  • Carry more than 60% of a full-time course load or 40% of a course load if registered with Accessible Learning Services.
  • Maintain good standing in a ministry-approved post-secondary program.
  • Maintain status as Full-Time student to maintain eligibility as a work study student.

If you meet all of the criteria above, you can apply for Work Study approval. If you get approved, you will then be able to apply for Work Study positions on campus.

On Campus Non-Work Study Positions:

If you are not eligible for a Work Study job; there are many other opportunities available on campus. Check the Career Portal at careerconnect.humber.ca to view postings, and visit the Advising & Career Services for more information.
