What is Federal Work-Study?
The Federal Work-Study Program is a federally funded
financial aid program available to citizens or permanent residents of the United States.
To be eligible, students must (1) receive a Federal Work-Study allocation as a part of the
financial package and (2) be enrolled at least half-time or have been accepted for such
enrollment. Federal Work-Study employment is on campus, and work schedules are set up
around classes. Typical jobs include clerical
work; assisting in the library, laboratories, or computer labs; tutoring; and child care
assistance. The basic pay is $6.75 per hour. To apply for a FWS award you must complete a
Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA).
