What is Work Study?

Work Study is a need-based financial aid program that allows eligible students to work part-time jobs on campus (and in some cases, off campus) to help pay for educational expenses.

  • Eligibility is determined through the FAFSA
  • Students are awarded Work Study as part of their financial aid package
  • Students are paid for hours worked (this is not automatic aid or a lump sum)
  • Earnings are paid paid on a bi-weekly pay period, earn $14.00 per hour, and are allowed to work up to 16 hours per week during the academic year.

*Having Work Study does not guarantee a job. Students must apply and be hired into a position.

Most positions are funded by federal or state work study funds; however, some are funded by student worker funds. Each position description states what funding is used for the position.  If you have additional questions or want to know if you qualify for work study, book an appointment with Financial Aid or drop in the Financial Aid office located in Student Affairs. 

Who is Eligible?

To participate in Work Study, students must:

  • Be enrolled in at least 6 credits per semester
  • Maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress
  • Have Work Study included in their financial aid offer
