in the academic department from which you will receive your degree; but
work-study jobs are available in many academic and administrative
departments, laboratories, libraries, and campus dining halls. If you
are employed under the work-study program, you will be paid biweekly
based on the number of hours you worked, and you may earn up to the
total amount specified in your financial aid award offer.
