CSA Work Study employment

The University of Guelph-Humber employs student CSAs through the Work Study program. You don't have to be a computer expert to apply; we train you on the job. We look for candidates from all academic programs with all levels of computer skills. We are looking for students who are willing to learn, have strong customer service skills and are excited about helping fellow students.

If you are eligible for the Work Study program and interested in this great opportunity to gain real-life experience, apply online at the GH Works website. The part-time position is usually posted online in the beginning of July.

Work Study eligibility

To be eligible for the Work Study program, you must be in satisfactory academic standing.  To work on campus, you also need to be considered a full-time student under OSAP's definitions (for most students this means a minimum 60 per cent course load; some students with disabilities are considered full-time at a 40 per cent course load), and you will need a Social Insurance Number.

Preference will be given to Work Study-eligible students; who demonstrate financial need as evidenced through an OSAP application.

The CSA program usually hires students to work approximately 15 hours per week, depending on the flexibility of their class schedules.
