Work-Study
What is Federal Work-Study?
The Federal Work-Study Program provides part-time employment for undergraduate
students that demonstrate financial need in accordance with federal guidelines, allowing
them to earn money to help pay for educational expenses.
Federal Work-Study wages will be at least the current minimum wage, but may be
higher according to the type of work you do and the skills required. Work-Study
awards are not grants that are directly applied to one’s tuition bill. Rather,
work-study earnings are paid biweekly based on the number of hours worked.
Income earned through the Work-Study Program is not exempt from federal or state taxation.
Therefore each student must complete the appropriate documentation prior to starting to
work.
Only students that have been awarded work-study as part of their financial aid are eligible to apply for work-study positions.
A student establishes eligibility for participation in the Federal Work-Study Program
by completing the FAFSA. See Apply for Financial Aid.
