Work-Study funding is awarded to students based on financial need. You must complete FAFSA in order to be considered for Work-Study funding. If you are awarded Work-Study, a portion of the award will be paid out to you each pay period as part of your hourly salary for your on-campus job. Unlike Pell grants and Stafford loans that are applied towards tuition and fees, Work-Study funding is earned and can be used towards living expenses.

In order to qualify for Work-Study, you must:

• Be enrolled at least half-time
• Have financial need (as determined by the FAFSA)
• Your tuition and fees must be paid for, or you must have a payment plan set up
• Be making satisfactory academic progress

If you are awarded Work-Study but do not secure an on-campus job within a 30-day timeframe, the award may be canceled. 

Work-Study awards are managed through Financial Aid. Contact Financial Aid with any further questions.

50/50 is a funding program for on-campus student jobs. Students do not need to apply for 50/50 funding - that is taken care of by the department. However, if the position you are applying for states it is funded through 50/50, you will likely need to meet the 50/50 qualifications which are:

• Maintain a 2.0 minimum GPA
• Enroll in at least 12 credits during fall/spring semesters or 6 credits during summer semesters
• Be working on your first bachelor’s degree

 

Even if you do not meet these criteria, you should still apply for 50/50 jobs you are interested in and otherwise qualified for.

Pooled positions remain open and accept applications for long periods of time.

Don’t hesitate to contact the employer with questions about the position, application, or timeline.
