OCSS student staff will serve as advocates for commuter, transfer, veteran and adult learner students on the UMBC campus. They will also assist with the retention of those students at UMBC through a series of well thought out programs and events. Student staff will also assist with administrative work within the OCSS office.</div>
    <div><br></div>

    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Commuter Assistants </strong></div>
    <div>Commuter Assistants connect commuter students to the greater campus community. OCSS, along with Commuter Assistants, work to prevent commuter students from experiencing the age-old commuter tale of simply going to class and going home.

    <div><em>Commuter Assistants must maintain a 2.5GPA prior to and during employment with OCSS.</em></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Transfer Assistants</strong></div>
    <div>Through a series of workshops and activities, Transfer Assistants help prospective, incoming, and current transfer student's transition to UMBC. Transfer Assistants along with many UMBC/OCSS resources, connect transfer students with like interests, and provide a network community for building social and career-minded relationships.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><em><u>Transfer Assistant Duties</u></em></div>
    <div>"Serve as a role model to off-campus and on-campus transfer students. </div>
    <div>"Develop peer-mentoring relationships with assigned students before, during, and after their transition.</div>
    <div>"Organize programming and services as part of your team and collateral project.</div>
    <div>"Assist in development of a sense of community among transfer students.</div>
    <div>"Assist with Office of Off-Campus Student Services events as needed, including, but not limited to Commuter Week, Commuter Carnival, and Welcome Week.</div>

    <div>      </div>
    <div><em>Transfer Assistants must maintain a 2.5GPA prior to and during employment with OCSS.</em></div>
    <div><strong><br></strong></div>
    <div><strong>Training</strong></div>
    <div>OCSS student staff must attend training sessions prior to the fall and spring semesters.  Student staff will be expected to assist during Welcome Week- the last weekend before classes.  Student staff will work an average of 5-10hours per week, as well as attend weekly team specific meetings on Fridays at 12pm.  If you are unable to attend the training or meet this time commitment, you cannot serve as an OCSS student staff member. </div>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div><strong>Off-Campus Student Services Staff</strong></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>OCSS seeks a group of motivated, intelligent, passionate, hardworking, dedicated, and ethical students to employ as student staff. OCSS student staff will serve as advocates for commuter, transfer, veteran and adult learner students on the UMBC campus. They will also assist with the retention of those students at UMBC through a series of well thought out programs and events. Student staff will also assist with administrative work within the OCSS office.</div>
    <div><strong><em><u>**To apply for a position, please download and complete the attached document. </u></em></strong></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Benefits of working in OCSS</div>
    <div>"OCSS student staff are paid hourly as student employees.</div>
    <div>"Meet and inspire other students at UMBC.</div>
    <div>"Develop leadership and community building experience.</div>
    <div>"You'll make great connections within the University </div>
    <div>"Working in OCSS is fun! </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Within OCSS, there are different teams of student leaders. They include Commuter Assistants and Transfer Student Network Leaders.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Commuter Assistants </strong></div>
    <div>Commuter Assistants connect commuter students to the greater campus community. OCSS, along with Commuter Assistants, work to prevent commuter students from experiencing the age-old commuter tale of simply going to class and going home. With several events every semester, our Commuter Assistants organize fun, yet educational events where students can socialize with other commuters, connect with staff and faculty, as well as learn about on or off-campus resources.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><em><u>Commuter Assistant Duties</u></em></div>
    <div>"Support Off-Campus Student Services by working in the office weekly.</div>
    <div>"Serve as a role model to off-campus and on-campus students. </div>
    <div>"Organize programming and services as part of the Commuter Assistant team and collateral project.</div>
    <div>"Assist in development of a sense of community among commuter students.</div>
    <div>"Assist with Office of Off-Campus Student Services events as needed, including, but not limited to Commuter Week, Commuter Connections, and Welcome Week.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><em>Commuter Assistants must maintain a 2.5GPA prior to and during employment with OCSS.</em></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Transfer Assistants</strong></div>
    <div>Through a series of workshops and activities, Transfer Assistants help prospective, incoming, and current transfer student's transition to UMBC. Transfer Assistants along with many UMBC/OCSS resources, connect transfer students with like interests, and provide a network community for building social and career-minded relationships.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><em><u>Transfer Assistant Duties</u></em></div>
    <div>"Serve as a role model to off-campus and on-campus transfer students. </div>
    <div>"Develop peer-mentoring relationships with assigned students before, during, and after their transition.</div>
    <div>"Organize programming and services as part of your team and collateral project.</div>
    <div>"Assist in development of a sense of community among transfer students.</div>
    <div>"Assist with Office of Off-Campus Student Services events as needed, including, but not limited to Commuter Week, Commuter Carnival, and Welcome Week.</div>
    <div>"Attend two Transfer Day Fairs at partnering community colleges throughout the semester.</div>
    <div>      </div>
    <div><em>Transfer Assistants must maintain a 2.5GPA prior to and during employment with OCSS.</em></div>
    <div><strong><br></strong></div>
    <div><strong>Training</strong></div>
    <div>OCSS student staff must attend training sessions prior to the fall and spring semesters.  Student staff will be expected to assist during Welcome Week- the last weekend before classes.  Student staff will work an average of 5-10hours per week, as well as attend weekly team specific meetings on Fridays at 12pm.  If you are unable to attend the training or meet this time commitment, you cannot serve as an OCSS student staff member. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Application deadlines:</strong></div>
    <div>Applications must be submitted to Off Campus Student Services by April 27, 2018.</div>
