GCC students interested in a work-study job must first file a FAFSA, then receive an offer of work-study as part of their financial aid package for the academic year.<\/p>\n

Using both federal and institutional funds, Greenfield Community College provides part-time employment opportunities\u2014both on- and off-campus\u2014for students who demonstrate financial need. Work-study offers students an excellent opportunity to earn spending money while gaining work experience. Hours for work-study positions are flexible enough to fit with your academic schedule. Funds enable eligible students to work an average of 10 hours per week each semester while classes are in session and around 15 hours per week at other times. Students are paid directly and expected to budget work-study earnings for educational expenses.<\/p>\nFind Work-Study Jobs <\/i><\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
