监控分配

Most students with work-study do not need to monitor their work-study allotment. Students are paid by their department, and it is the department’s responsibility to ensure they have enough funds in their student employment budget to pay their student employees.

然而, students who work with approved off-campus organizations (i.e. Claremont Colleges Libraries, Uncommon Good, etc.) must monitor their work-study earnings (as this is the source of their pay). Students that work for these organizations will receive email reminders from the 财政援助办公室 with updates regarding their work-study allotment.

What happens if I earn more than my allotment? 

If you earn more than your allotment AND you work for an off-campus employer, you will be asked to stop working and your supervisor will be notified. Their department will be responsible for the repayment of any excess funds above your work-study allotment.

如果我有多份工作怎么办?

Students with multiple jobs do not need to worry about their work-study allotment unless one of their employers is an off-campus department.

At the end of the calendar year, Pitzer will issue you a W-2 form for your earnings. 重要的是你 保留一份Pitzer W-2表格 and any other W-2 forms you are issued, as you will be required to provide them as part of your financial aid application in future years.

人力资源部会发放所有的w -2表格. If you have misplaced a W-2 from a previous year, please contact HR. The 财政援助办公室 cannot access or obtain a copy of your Pitzer W-2.

Earnings Impact on Future 金融援助

Earnings exceeding your work-study allotment may have an impact on your financial aid Eligibility. We encourage you to speak with our office if you have significant earnings above your allotment or outside of work-study to see how they may affect your financial aid Eligibility.
