Please Note
For purposes of the SURF program, undergraduates are students who will not yet have completed their undergraduate studies at the start of their summer fellowship.
The University allows students to work a maximum of 40 hours per week during the summer (all campus jobs combined). This means that students cannot participate in the NURF program on a full-time basis and at the same time hold any other paid, on-campus, summer position. (Fellowships of less than 40 hours per week (i.e., to also work for Residential Life) would be considered on a case-by-case basis.)
In addition, fellowship recipients who attend Notre Dame and have 2023-2024 on-campus, academic-year jobs may have restrictions on their SURF start date; contact ccas.nd.edu for more details.
