The Federal Work-Study Program is designed to stimulate and promote the part-time employment of university students who have demonstrated financial need and who require the wages from the employment to pursue their studies.

Students in the Federal Work-Study Program are employed by the
University. Students are paid bi-weekly for the hours worked during
the preceding pay period. Federal Work-Study is not deducted from
the student’s tuition invoice. Employment under the Federal Work-
Study Program is awarded as part of your “financial aid package.”
The Financial Aid Office will attempt to match you with a job
based on your job application form, which will be sent with your
award letter.

You must maintain satisfactory progress to renew your employment.
