What is Federal Work-Study?
The Federal Work-Study (FWS) Program provides part-time employment to students attending institutions of higher education who demonstrate a financial need to help meet their post-secondary education costs and encourages students receiving FWS assistance to participate in community service activities.
The Work-Study Program is designed to prepare students for the workforce, encourage responsibility, provide a comprehensive view of a strong work ethic, and provide valuable work experience within a student’s field of study. In turn, the student contributes to the successful operation of the College and/or local community service agencies.
Who is eligible for Federal Work-Study?
To determine eligibility, the student must submit a FAFSA, demonstrate financial need, maintain satisfactory academic progress, and be enrolled and maintain at least half-time enrollment each semester of each academic school year. Eligibility will be determined based on FAFSA results and the submission of the work-study application.
For additional information regarding FWS, please contact the Financial Aid office. Our office is located in A Building, room 100.
