Federal or state work study programs are another way to help pay for college.
The Federal Work-Study Program is to encourage and promote the employment of students. Federal Work-Study (FWS) provides part-time jobs for students with financial need, allowing them to earn money to help meet their educational costs.
The program encourages community service work and work related to the recipient's course of study (internships). Eligibility for Federal Work-Study is determined from the information students provide on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
All types of work study require you to work a specific number of hours each week, and to be paid on a biweekly basis. Work study jobs can be on or off campus. Student workers may be eligible to work up to 20 hours per week. The starting rate of pay is $15.00 per hour.
