What is work study?

Working for a Diploma

An alternative to taking out loans to help fill in the gaps in student financial aid is the work study program. Participants in these programs work doing various jobs for the university for a set wage that goes towards financial aid.

*Work study jobs are applied for and granted through the school financial aid office. In some cases, these jobs can also offer some spending money for your day to day college expenses.
