Background Information
The International Student Employment Assistance (ISEA) program is a new financial aid program designed to help international students who demonstrate financial need to compete for better on-campus jobs. The Office for International Students and Scholars will administer this new program.
What is it?
Students who are American citizens or legal permanent
residents are eligible for work-study financial aid that is supported by the U.S. Government. Eligibility is based on a student demonstrating financial need. Work-Study pays money, not to the students, but to the on-campus employers of the students. The program subsidizes the cost the hiring departments face when paying a student worker. Thus, it makes it less expensive for employers to hire a student, allowing more students to be hired for more jobs on-campus.
As a result, U.S. students with work-study awards had more opportunities for interesting, relevant on-campus jobs.
