Why not work where you take classes and study? In addition to saving time and money,
statistics have revealed that Western Nevada College students who work on campus tend
to do better academically, complete their degrees and have a great chance of becoming
an executive on campus someday.
WNC currently has more than 20 jobs available to students many of which are offered
through the colleges work study employment program.
Statistically speaking, there are multiple reasons students should work at WNC:
75 percent of WNCs executive team worked as student employees when they were in college.
You never know what doors will open when you work on campus! said WNC Scholarship
and Student Employment Coordinator Temple Campana.
Studies show that students who work on campus tend to do better academically. Working
part time on campus helps students better plan their time and balance their work and
school responsibilities. Students who work on campus tend to carry a 3.0 or higher
GPA. Conversely, students who work full time while going to school full time often
have GPAs lower than 3.0.
Students who work on campus tend to continue on to a bachelors degree program.
Students who work on campus are more career ready when they enter their professional
careers after they finish their college programs.
