College Work-Study
Work-study is an effective method of helping students pay for postsecondary education and minimize the debt burden they accumulate through student loans.
- On and off-campus work-study opportunities are provided through college financial aid offices and are based on financial need. Work-study is usually awarded with a student’s financial aid package on a first-come, first-served basis. However, some state work-study funds are available at some colleges and jobs may be available on a non-need basis.
- The funds are earned throughout the term, and aren’t paid up front.
- Wages earned through work-study do not count against a student’s eligibility for aid for the next school year.
