Federal Work-Study (FWS)

FWS is awarded to undergraduate students who demonstrate financial need. The award ranges from $500 to $2000 per year and priority is given to students who meet the FAFSA priority application deadline of February 14th.

If you are eligible for FWS it may be part of your financial aid package. However, if it is not part of your initial package and you would like to be considered for FWS, click here to add your name to the waiting list.

FWS Waiting List

  

Finding a Position

Awarded students are emailed in early August with details of how to locate a position. Contact information is provided on each job listing so students can submit their application/resume.

Begin Work

Students who have secured employment and completed all necessary payroll paperwork are eligible to begin work the first day of class each fall or spring term. Students with FWS awards must secure employment by September 15 or awards will be cancelled for non-response. Due to limited funding, cancelled awards cannot automatically be reinstated.
