What students do

Through the Corporate Work Study Program (CWSP), Cristo Rey Orlando student-associates gain exposure to a variety of roles across different departments. From administrative support and customer service to technology, marketing, finance, and operations, students contribute meaningfully to the day-to-day work of an organization.

While the examples below highlight common areas where students thrive, CWSP is designed to be flexible. We work closely with each corporate partner to customize placements based on your team’s unique needs, ensuring students provide valuable support where it matters most.

Become a Sponsor

Cristo Rey Orlando’s Corporate Work Study Program (CWSP) connects your business with motivated, trained high school students who work part-time while earning a college-prep education.

Not every company can host Students Associates, but you can still make a lasting impact. By underwriting a team of Cristo Rey Orlando students, you give them the opportunity to work at a local nonprofit while helping fund their education.
