Financial
Aid Office
Second Floor, North College
The Office of Financial Aid is committed to ensuring
that the opportunity for a Wesleyan education is not
denied to any student because of limited financial
resources. To accomplish this goal, the office
administers a broad range of need-based grants,
scholarships, student employment, and loans designed to
meet the financial needs of all eligible students.
Whatever your circumstances, please keep in mind that the
Office of Financial Aid staff is available to provide
information on financing your Wesleyan education. Even if
you do not qualify for financial aid, several alternative
financing options such as installment payment plans and
other supplemental loans are available to assist your
family. In addition, free Internet scholarship
(need-based as well as merit) searches are accessible
from www.wesleyan.edu/finaid/scholarships.html.
We encourage you to visit the Office of Financial Aid
Resource Room to speak with an informed peer advisor or
counselor.
Office hours are Monday –Friday, 9 a.m.–5
p.m. (4 p.m. during the summer). If you have any
questions, please contact this office at 860
–685-2800 or by e-mail, finaid@wesleyan.edu.

Student Employment:
Finding a Job
Students who have been allotted Federal Work-Study or
WESWork employment may work part-time during the academic
year to help meet their financial need. This is money
that must be earned each semester; it is not guaranteed
money that is set aside for students. Students will have
access to job postings on the Web after arriving on
campus in the fall provided complete Federal and State
W-4 forms and a Federal I-9 Employment verification form
are on file with the University.
Even if you do not have Federal Work-Study or WESWork
eligibility, you may still work on campus, but you must
locate jobs on your own. Students are welcome to view
campus and local employment listings posted on the Job
Board in the Office of Financial Aid.
Office hours are Monday –Friday, 9 a.m.–5 p.m. (4 p.m. during the
summer). You may also reach the office by phone at (860) 685-2800

Payroll Office
212 College Street
The Payroll Office, as part of the Controller’s
Office, is responsible for processing student worksheets
submitted by the departments. Students deal directly with
the Payroll Office staff on issues of tax withholding,
W-2 statements, lost checks, and direct deposit.
All students must submit forms W-4 (Federal Income Tax
Withholding Certificate) and CTW-4 (State of CT Income
Tax Withholding Certificate) to the Payroll Office prior
to the first day of work. Please note that earnings paid
to full-time students during the academic year are not
subject to Social Security/Medicare tax withholding.
However, earnings paid during the summer session are
subject to these taxes and will result in a separate W-2.
International students, as nonresident aliens, are
required to fill out additional paperwork to determine
their tax status, if they are eligible for a tax treaty
exemption, and to understand their filing requirements
under U.S. tax law.
Direct deposit of students' paychecks is available and
encouraged.
Those students who have completed their degree
requirements prior to graduation and who are no longer
full-time students will be considered "periphery
employees" for payroll purposes and will follow the
temporary employee payment schedule and guidelines.
Office hours are Monday –Friday, 9 a.m.–5
p.m., and as necessary by appointment.
For more information, contact:
Katherine Wichlac, payroll manager 685-2969
