DEFINITION OF A STUDENT EMPLOYEE
A student employee is a full-time or part-time student, enrolled at Florida Atlantic University, registered at least half-time and whose primary purpose for being at the University is the achievement of a degree or certification. During the summer semester, an individual is considered a student employee if the student was enrolled and degree-seeking in the preceding Spring Semester and is intending to enroll for Fall Semester classes.
Exceptions can be made for those desiring to become full-time line position employees which would make their student status secondary. Students who have graduated must have their student appointments terminated by the date of graduation. These individuals can be hired through the Processing & Records/Employment Office.
All international students must be registered full-time for spring and fall semesters, except for their graduating semester.
CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT

Exceptions, within reasonable limits, may be made upon the approval of the student’s Academic Advisor, or in the case of graduate students, the Dean of the Graduate College.
