McGill's Work Study Program

950 students participating
3.4 million earned
1 million in subsidies

Are you a student in financial need, looking for part-time work? Work Study Program: text in red block letters and white with red background.

Are you a McGill (or McGill-affiliated) employer looking for a cost-effective way to support your department?   

The Work Study Program connects students in financial need with part-time jobs on or near campus, while helping employers hire in a cost-effective way. Together, this creates meaningful opportunities for students to gain career-related skills and experience through roles such as clerical, research, technical, and library positions at McGill and select affiliated hospitals and organizations. 

Student acceptance to the program is primarily based on financial need. 

Students and employers : apply in Minerva as of July for work starting in the Fall term!
