Work-Study

Federal Work-Study is awarded based on need. Eligible students are awarded a yearly work-study allowance. Students work in on-campus jobs an average of 10 hours per week and are paid weekly at the state or federal minimum wage, whichever is higher. Students are responsible for finding a position through the Business Office. Students' ability to earn their total allowance depends on the number of hours worked and the availability of jobs. Before commencing employment, students must complete a W-4 and an I-9 to prove U.S. citizenship.
