Student Employment
Federal Work-Study (FWS) is a need-based work program designed to assist
students in meeting their financial obligations while attending school. FWS
is income many students earn that does not effect federal aid need.
Eligibility for these positions is dependent upon need, as determined by
the Free Application for Federal Student
Aid (FAFSA). Students must complete the financial aid process before
eligibility for FWS can be determined. Follow the link to apply online.
As a Work-Study employee, you are limited to earn the amount of your FWS
award. A FWS award is not disbursed in a lump sum, but through bi-weekly
paychecks for hours actually worked. There is no guarantee that you will
earn the full amount of your FWS Award. Once you reach your earning
limitation, your supervisor may continue your employment under their
divisional budget. Due to budget restrictions, there is no guarantee for a
continued employment under the division's budget.
On average, FWS positions pay $7.50 to $10.00 per hour, 16 hours per week
and never exceeding more than 20 hours in one week.
Positions are limited, and students interested in work study must fill
out the
Student Employment Application and submit it to
GateWay Central.
Current
positions are updated as positions and funding become available.
