Federal Work-Study Program The Federal Work-Study Program provides meaningful employment on campus and in the community so that students might earn monies to help in the payment of college costs. Students who demonstrate financial need through the FAFSA analysis may be awarded Federal Work-Study as part of their financial aid package. Students eligible to participate in the Federal Work-Study Program must stop by the Office of Financial Aid when they arrive in the Fall to pick up an Authorization Form. The Office of Financial Aid will not place students directly in a job. Students will be referred to supervisors who have positions available. Each semester the After a student has been hired into a position, the Work-Study Authorization Form must be completed. The student and supervisor should fill out the form and return it to the Office of Financial Aid, Campus Box 438. |
If a student has never worked on campus before, he/she MUST complete paperwork at the Human Resources Office on the First Floor of Penn Hall within three days of the first day of employment. If the necessary paperwork is not completed, the student is not authorized to work on campus and cannot be paid. Other Campus Employment Students seeking non work-study employment should visit the Center for Career Development's job listing website for a list of available positions on-campus.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I record my hours for payroll purposes?
All offices and departments use electronic time sheets. It is important that the time sheet be filled out completely. In and out times must include AM or PM. The supervisor must approve the time sheet before it can be processed. Late time sheets will be paid in the next pay period. Late processing may increase the amount of federal taxes that will be withheld.
How often will I be paid?
Students are paid on a biweekly basis, with a two-week lag between the end of the pay period and payday. Direct deposit statements are mailed to campus boxes or can be viewed by logging into PeopleSoft Self Service every payday. Students can sign up to apply their earnings directly to their semester balance by contacting the Student Accounts Office.
Am I required to accept the Work-Study award?
Students who do not wish to work may decline the Work-Study award. If additional funds are needed, students can apply for loans to replace the Work-Study award.
