Graduate Catalog 2014-2015

Federal Work-Study

Federal Work-Study (FWS) eligibility is based on established financial need and at least half-time enrollment. Jobs are located on campus and work schedules are planned around the student's class schedule. Community service positions are also available through the FWS program. Detailed information may be found at Student Aid on the Web.

FWS money is not available at registration to pay for the student's fees. Students are paid on a bi-weekly basis for the actual hours worked. All FWS recipients will receive an Award Letter with the amount per semester the student is eligible to earn. The Student Employment Coordinator facilitates placement of students in specific positions.
