What is campus work study?
Students are eligible for federal college work-study based on need. The amount earned varies with the number of hours worked. Students typically work 7-10 hours a week. File the FAFSA form to determine eligibility for federal work-study. Generally, students are paid minimum wage on a bi-weekly basis. While the awarded amount is included in the financial aid package, it does not directly reduce the semester bill. Students must earn the money, which can act as reimbursement for tuition paid or can be saved for the following semester.
Various offices and departments throughout the campus hire student workers. Students are responsible for finding their own position. Students who are eligible for federal work-study have first priority for campus employment.
