The mission of Vermont Technical College's program is to help students bridge the gap in meeting their educational and personal expenses while attending college. VTC recognizes student employees as an integral part of College operations and is dedicated to providing a positive work experience while supporting the educational goals of the student.
Campus employment in addition to the financial benefits can help:
- Provide social interaction
- Learn time management
- Enrich academic experiences
- Career exploration
At Vermont Technical College, the campus employment experience is valued by faculty, staff, and students. While students are striving to meet expenses, the experience itself can provide students a useful foundation for developing workplace skills that will help with future employment.

U.S. immigration laws require that all new employees comlete an I-9 Form within three business days of the date of hire. This applies to work study students as well. The required documentation must be reviewed and verified before you can begin work. You will need two forms of identifaction to complete this form, preferably a driver's license and social security card.
Once you have completed an I-9 and W-4 Form you will be issued a Work-Sudy Contract.
The work study contract outlines the conditions that you must meet in order to be employed under the Federal Work Study program. It also identifies you as a participant in VTC's work study program. The Financial Aid Office will complete section A, your supervisor will complete section B, and you must sign and date it in section C. You will be responsible for returning the completed form to the Financial Aid Office. You may not begin work until the contract is completed.
