Federal Work Study (FWS)

This is a need-based federally subsidized award for part-time employment, administered by the College. Earnings are paid directly to the student through bi-weekly paychecks.  The students' weekly hours and wages are determined by the College and limited by eligibility and fund availability.  Students are only compensated for hours they actually work.  The maximum amount of hours students may work a week is 20 when classes are in session and 40 when classes are not in session.

Fund availability is not guaranteed, but if funding is offered graduate students may request FWS consideration.  Awards are offered to eligible full-time or part-time students who request FWS at the discretion of the Office of Student Financial Services.
