*Work Study Disclaimer - Corporate Work Study staff endeavor to match students to job placements that meet or further their educational and career goals. Partner employers reserve the right to require various vaccines and medical clearance, especially those in the early education, hospitality, healthcare, and life-science industries. If a student worker cannot provide proof of being fully up to date on all vaccines and boosters, including COVID and Flu vaccines, this may jeopardize their ability to be placed in their preferred work setting.  All Cristo Rey Boston students are required to work and fully participate in work-study.
