Southwestern Adventist University is committed to providing a campus job to any student taking six or more credit hours. Students apply for a job at jobs.swau.edu. Many campus jobs will require that the student arrange a class schedule that will allow them to work all morning or all afternoon each weekday.

A student should be prepared to show documentation of identity and employment authorization. Original documents are mandatory, copies will not be accepted. Students will submit I-9 documentation to Campus Service.
