Schreiner Work Study

Job Opportunities on Campus

The federal government, state of Texas and Schreiner University provide programs for students to work while they are enrolled in school. Part time work-study positions are available both on and off campus to eligible students.

How do you know if you are eligible?

The Office of Financial Aid must award work-study to a student. Students must then apply for various positions through the Meaningful Work Office. The award does not guarantee a position. Students must interview and obtain a job before they are paid an hourly wage. Checks are cut bi-weekly to students based on approved time sheets.

Whether you are an incoming freshman or a current student, if you were not awarded work-study and would like the opportunity to work on campus, contact the financial aid office.

Step 1: Complete your Handshake profile:

  • Upload your resume (If you need help with your resume, contact the Office of Meaningful Work).
  • Upload a completed Work-Study application form (accessible on the Schreiner One homepage under Campus Resources). [NOTE: Download the Work-Study application form and reopen it in Adobe Acrobat to type directly into the form and sign using your digital signature.]

Step 2: Search and apply for jobs on Handshake. [NOTE: Filter your job search by On Campus Student Employment] Work-Study supervisors will contact you to arrange job interviews.

Step 3: Once you have a job offer, you must attend mandatory Payroll Orientation with the Human Resources Team. Training is conducted every Wednesday and Thursday from 2:00 – 3:30 pm in the Human Resources Office (in the Gus Schreiner Bldg. across from the Diner).
