There are plenty of different positions you can apply for WorkStudy. For instance, you can apply for a library assistant job. For a list of job positions, go to www.oscarplusmcmaster .ca under WorkStudy.

The hours really depends on your timetable since you will be working in between classes. It is usually not determined if you got the job after the interview process when you give them your timetable.

Jobs will be posted on Aug 1 according to the website. Jobs vary in how much hours you can work. OSAP has a rule that earning up to 300 a week during the year will not be penalized. More than that and OSAP can be reduced

As MacPack said, August is usually the start of applying for WorkStudy and the deadline is usually determined by the specific job posting you are applying for.
