Federal Work Study
What?
Federal Work Study provides jobs for students with financial needs, allowing them to earn money to pay education expenses. Work study award amounts must be earned before they can be applied to the student account, so initial fees at registration will not be covered.
Who?
Approximately 300 students are awarded work study amounts each year at Delta State.
When?
Most students work 8-10 hours per week. Paychecks are issued on the 15th of each month.
