How Does Federal Work-Study work?

Student Perspective

  • Typical offer is $3,500
  • Work-Study must be accepted
  • Students must complete all onboarding  tasks prior to earning
  • Student earnings are directly-deposited  into their bank accounts  - not reflected in their Bursar account
  • Earning totals are reflected in LionPATH
  • Notifications are sent to STUDENTS at 50% and 75%. and then after each pay-period beyond that
  • Increases can be requested - pending eligibility review and funding availability
