Students can search Cougar Jobline for on- and off-campus jobs starting two weeks before the break week that precedes each term. To see postings for a term, students must be enrolled for that term and meet other employment criteria.

Students may begin working on campus during the break week before classes begin, once they are enrolled and meet other employment criteria.

Notes

• Students may not work on the University payroll after the last day to work on campus unless they are enrolled and meet other employment criteria for the next term.
• Summer exception: students who were enrolled at least half-time in spring, or who are enrolled at least half-time for the upcoming fall, may work in summer without summer enrollment. See Policies and Guidelines.
• Work dates apply to on-campus jobs. Off-campus employers set their own start dates.
• This schedule may change if the academic calendar changes.
• *Estimated. Spring 2027 end dates are based on the expected start of summer 2027 and will be confirmed when the summer 2027 academic calendar is published.
