The Department of Student Financial Aid has announced that nominations for the 9th annual Student Employee of the Year Awards will open on Jan. 2. They encourage the recognition of outstanding student employee by nominating him or her for this award.

To be eligible, nominees must be a Texas A&M student currently employed and working an average of 15 – 25 hours per week with their main focus being school. Nominees may be undergraduate or graduate but not a Graduate Assistant nor Teaching Assistant and they must have been employed a minimum of six (6) months by Feb. 2 and enrolled at least half time (6 hours undergraduate, 4 hours graduate) while maintaining a 3.0 GPR or above during the semesters that the student is employed (to be calculated by Student Employment Office).

Students must be nominated by a supervisor or staff member in one of three categories: semesters of service, GPR during those semesters, and the written nomination by the employer.

The written nomination is used to evaluate the student based on the following criteria: Reliability, Quality of Work, Initiative, Professionalism, and Uniqueness of Contribution.

One student employed on-campus and one student employed off-campus will be selected and will receive a scholarship sponsored by the Association of Former Students during the Student Employee of the Year awards ceremony on April 10.
