What is a work study Rutgers student?

Work Study Rutgers Students are enrolled students at Rutgers University who participate in the Federal Work-Study Program, which provides part-time employment opportunities to help them earn money for educational expenses. These jobs are usually on campus or with approved off-campus employers and are designed to be flexible around students' class schedules. Eligibility is determined through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and positions can range from administrative work to research assistance and more. Participating in work-study can also help students gain valuable job experience while in school.
