Financial Aid & Scholarships

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.
