Federal Work Study
Your Federal Work-Study earnings will be at least the current federal minimum wage, but they may be higher, depending on the type of work you do, and the skills required. A Federal Work-Study award depends on the availability of funding at the institution, the institution's awarding policies for Federal Work-Study, when you apply, your level of need, and your commitment to obtaining a qualified Federal Work-Study position and performing the work required.
Typically, Federal Work Study is calculated with two equations:
- Cost of Attendance(COA) - Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) = Financial Need
- Financial Need - Other Resources = Maximum FWS Award
