Federal Work Study

Earn money towards your education costs...

The Federal Work Study (FWS) program is a form of need-based financial assistance providing job opportunities on-campus. A student must file the FAFSA for consideration. The Federal Work Study (FWS) program is different from other awards as it’s not a guaranteed amount and will not be deducted from your tuition invoice. 

Various offices and departments throughout the campus hire student workers. Students are responsible for finding their own position. Students who are eligible for federal work-study have priority for campus employment.

Please check your financial aid award notification for details. You can log into your Financial Aid Portal at finaid.chalakseir.com to confirm federal work study eligibility or call the Office of Financial Aid at 724-847-6530.
