Other On-Campus Part-time Employment
You do not have to apply for financial aid or be awarded FWS to secure a job on-campus. Daytona State College has an Institutional Work Study (IWS) program that provides part-time employment to students who do not demonstrate financial need to be eligible for the Federal Work-Study Program, but otherwise like to secure a part-time job on-campus. Students can search for employment opportunities on the Student Employment Opportunities page.
Visit the DSC Financial Aid page that has all the information you need about work study/student employment at the College.
Visit the office of Federal Student Aid for more information about the work study program itself.
