Professional Work-Study Program

Overview

Our Professional Work-Study Program makes the Cristo Rey Columbus experience stand out! Everyone involved benefits enormously from this national educational model, as businesses invest in student workers who are in need of an affordable education. We value our work-study partners greatly because they’re as committed to helping and guiding our students as we are.

For work-study partners, the program allows them to fill entry-level positions with highly motivated and intelligent student workers. As a proven business model, the Work-Study Program is designed to meet our partners’ entry-level employee needs and their bottom lines, benefiting their profit and their brand. We make sure to proudly display our work-study partners on our website and to our community!

For students, the program allows them to contribute to the cost of their college-prep education. They gain crucial professional work experience that prepares them for life beyond school. Every Cristo Rey Columbus student takes a full course load of college-preparatory classes in addition to working one day each week in the professional offices of our work-study partners. 

In the words of some of our current work-study partners and students:

My experience has been amazing! I’ve been fortunate to sit in on big-name meetings and create relationships with professionals that will last a lifetime!
