<p>I am very very close to landing a job on campus this summer, in particular, working at the front desk of the dorms and helping people with their questions//if they lock themselves out, etc. just out of curiosity, those of you who have done this, did you meet a lot of people this way? did you like this sort of job?</p>
<p>i love my on-campus job selling textbooks sooooo much–hopefully i can do it for the rest of my life haha</p>
<p>i get paid to like…stand around, do homework, do a crossword puzzle, chat with my coworkers (who are all students like me), read a trashy magazine, etc. it’s fabulous.</p>
<p>Was it easy for you to lend an on-campus job for the summer? I’m an international and have no intention of flying home each summer. On-campus job sounds the best…</p>
<p>^^</p>
<p>Will Vassar let you rent out a campus apartment or dorm for the summer? I know this is possible at my school (Haverford College) as long as you enter a short-term lease and pay rent on time throughout the summer.</p>
<p>I think most schools are willing to work things out with internationals for summer lodging, anecdotally, I know mine does.</p>
<p>Vassar offers residency over the summer for a small amount of students, primaliry internationals. I was just hoping to work at the school as well, as opposed to catering or something like that (which I’m horrible at).</p>
<p>Working on campus is so much fun! I’ve met so many different faculty members, students I wouldn’t have interacted with before, community members, alums…I would completely recommend it.</p>
