Missouri Southern State University Student Employment's mission is to empower students in securing meaningful, academically relevant college work experiences as well as offering programs and training events that enhance both academic and professional growth.
Student Employment and Work-Study jobs are applied for through Hire-A-Lion.
Student employment is any on-campus student job that does not require work-study eligibility. The majority of on-campus student employment jobs available are not work-study jobs.
Work-study is a federally funded program that is designed to help provide jobs for students who have financial need. Students apply for work-study eligibility by completing a FAFSA. Not all students are eligible for work-study. Eligibility is determined based on your financial need. To find out if you are work-study eligible contact the Financial Aid Office or the Student Employment Coordinator.
All students working on-campus must meet the following requirements:
Student employees working on-campus are allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours per week and are paid a minimum $11.08 per hour. These jobs do not receive any employee benefits.
