What is Federal Work Study?
The Federal Work Study Program (FWS) provides part-time employment to learners with financial need. Financial need is based on the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) provided by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The award amount depends on the learner's financial need and is based on expected weekly employment targets. Unlike federal grants, funds from the Federal Work Study are paid to the learner on a bi-weekly basis after employment requirements have been met and wages have been earned. The inclusion of Federal Work Study in a financial aid award is not a guarantee of the amount learners will earn as they will be paid only for the hours that are worked.
All federal aid sources must be included in a learner's financial aid, including the Federal Work Study Program. With this additional federal aid source, it may reduce the amount of federal loans for which a learner is eligible. Federal loans must be paid back (with interest) whereas the Federal Work Study Program funds are provided bi-weekly and do not require repayment.
