Student working at CMU

Welcome to Student Employment Services.
We support students and campus departments throughout the on campus student employment experience at Central Michigan University.
Student Employment Services can help with finding on campus jobs, understanding employment requirements, and navigating the student employment process.

Student Work Hour Limit
Student employees may work a maximum of 50 hours per pay period during the fall and spring semesters including exam weeks, winter Break, and spring Break.

Finding on campus student jobs

Beginning January 5, 2026, on campus student employment opportunities will be available in Career Central, the university's platform for student employment postings.
Career Central brings student job opportunities together in one centralized location. Student accounts are automatically created.

Work Study and employment eligibility

Work Study is a federal financial aid program that is awarded to eligible students. While not all students qualify for Work Study, many on campus jobs are available to students without it.
Student Employment Services can help students understand their eligibility and on campus employment options.

Required employment paperwork

All student employees are required to complete I-9 and tax paperwork through Student Employment Services before beginning work on campus.
Proper identification is required to complete employment paperwork.

Supervisors and departments

Campus departments use Career Central to create and manage on campus student job postings.
Student Employment Services reviews postings, while hiring actions continue to be completed through Personnel Transactions.
