Federal Work-Study is an employment program that allows eligible students to work part time while attending school. The program provides valuable work experience while helping students earn money to support their education.

Students who are eligible for Federal Work-Study are often highly desired for student employment positions because the federal government supplements the wages paid by the university. Work-Study is available to undergraduate and graduate students.

Contact the Office of Financial Aid to see if you qualify for Federal Work-Study.
