Student Work Opportunities
Many students help finance their education by securing part-time employment. Marymount is committed to the goal of academic excellence and the success of our students. Students are permitted to hold part time employment in one position for a maximum of 19.5 hours per week. This type of assistance is considered to be a form of “self-help”. Marymount Manhattan College provides employment assistance in the form of Federal Work-Study for those students who show financial need. Positions are also available through the regular student employment program. Descriptions of these programs and procedures for applying are listed below:
