COVID-19 Student Employment Updates
 

To keep up to date with Northeastern's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, please see the university's dedicated COVID-19 website.

The Office of Student Employment, Graduate Assistantships & Fellowships is available remotely via phone and email during regular hours - Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 5pm. Please note the following changes to our operations:

  • Form I-9 can be completed entirely remotely thanks to a temporary policy change from the Department of Homeland Security. The student employee still needs to present documents to a representative from our office on or before their first day of work - to set up this meeting, please use our Bookings page.
  • Direct Deposit is mandatory for all University employees, sign up today if you haven't. If you know you had a paper check waiting for you at the Human Resources office, contact us to have it mailed to you immediately!

 

If you need to initiate a new student hire while we are still operating remotely, especially for a student who hasn't worked at Northeastern before, please contact us as soon as you know – compliance with labor laws is still crucial!

 

Thank you for your assistance. We hope everyone stays safe and healthy.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: Can student employees continue to work remotely?

 

A: Students can continue to work remotely if it's appropriate for their job and their supervisor approves.


 

Q: If I am outside the U.S. now that classes are online, can my Student Account refund or student employment pay check be directly deposited to an international bank account?
 

A: No - we're only able to issue payment via Direct Deposit with U.S. financial institutions. 

 


Q: While the University is remote, can I work over 20 hours in a week while in classes?
 

A: No - the 20 hour weekly limit still applies while classes are still in session, even online.

 

 

Q: Where can I find my 2020 W-2?
