<p>How hard is it to find a job on campus or within easy walking distance for students who do not have federal work study eligibility?</p>
<p>Not very difficult. Typically, dining halls start hiring around the first week of classes (at least on North); and there is a database of job openings for other positions on campus.</p>
<p>plenty of non-work study jobs available right on campus. son walked or took bus (freshmen get free bus pass) to his job.</p>
<p>As someone else said, there’s always Cornell Dining jobs at the dining halls.</p>
<p>If you’re lucky (and skilled), you can get hired by the Learning Strategies Center. I did, as part of the Calculus tutors</p>
<p>Thanks, very reassuring! I’ve heard people from a lot of other schools complain that it’s very difficult to get a job if you don’t qualify for federal work study.</p>
<p>D1 started looking at job postings before orientation week. She was able to line up interviews as soon as she showed up on campus. She got an office job, which she worked until graduation. She worked between 8 to 12 hours a week. Campus jobs tend to be more flexible. They understand students have exams and breaks. </p>
<p>I think it is a good idea to work while in college. It gives them work experience, some pocket money, and have better time management skill.</p>
<p>Where can i look up job openings?</p>
