Summer Employment

Summer work is processed separately from academic year positions. Whether you are continuing from the academic year or starting a new position, you must go through the normal hiring process and receive a hiring confirmation email from Human Resources before you can begin work in your summer position and obtain access to your timecard in Oracle.

Eligibility

All actively enrolled students for the semester are eligible for on-campus jobs, unless restricted by visa status. Total combined work hours (across all Middlebury positions) may not exceed 40 hours per week during the summer.

• Remote work from international locations is not permitted.
• Students who are on leave or withdrawn are not eligible for student employment, including summer positions. However, they can be hired into temporary staff positions.
• Recent graduates are not eligible for undergraduate student employment. They should visit the Middlebury College Careers page for available staff roles if they are interested in continuing to be employed with the college

On Campus Work

Students may work in person and on campus during the summer. Housing and dining plans are optional and available on a limited basis with more information available from Residential Life and Dining Services. 

Remote Work

Students can only work remotely if physically located within the United States.  All duties and responsibilities must be achievable by remote work. International remote work is not allowed.

Campus Housing and Dining Information

If you are seeking summer housing, you must work a minimum of 30 hours per week to be eligible, which can include a combination of remote and on-campus hours.
