The College Work-Study Program provides jobs for students with financial need. This program is a subsidized student employment program designed to assist students in financing their post-secondary education. Employment opportunities exist on campus and vary depending upon the hiring department. These departments are, SUCCESS, Business Office, Advising, IT and STEM.
To be eligible for Work-Study, students must document financial need every year by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Work-study is a need-based award and cannot be awarded to a student if the award combined with other resources would exceed the student's need. Students are awarded funds based on their financial need but are only paid for hours worked. Any unearned funds at the end of the program term are forfeited.
Students applying for work-study positions are not guaranteed a position. Work-study positions are based upon department needs and the availability of funds. Work-study earnings are not paid in advance so they cannot be used to pay the direct costs (tuition, books, etc.) of the semester in which they are awarded.
