Can a student who is on an approved Leave of Absence continue working in their current student position?

Yes, a student who is on an approved Leave of Absence, processed by the Registrar’s office, is eligible to continue working through the quarter of their Leave of Absence. Please note that Work-Study does not apply when a student works during an approved Leave of Absence. Students in non-student Academic Student Employment (ASE) appointments are not eligible to work during a Leave of Absence. Students may not be hired into a new student posiiton during a Leave of Absence.

Can a student who graduates continue to work in their student job for the following quarter?

A student who has graduated early may be eligible to continue working in their student job for up to one quarter after graduation if approved by Career Success. Approval will automatically be granted for students graduating in a Spring quarter - those students may continue working up to September 30, 20XX in that role.

A request must be submitted for all other student employment exemptions by the student’s supervisor by completing this FORM. Please note that Work-Study will not apply for early graduates.
