Award Information

All work-study awards must be earned; they are not grants. Payments will be made to students in a biweekly paycheck, not subtracted from their tuition bill.

Awards are based on a students academic status and are awarded as follows:

Freshman: $2000 per year ($1000 per semester)
Sophomore: $2200 per year ($1100 per semester)
Junior: $2400 per year ($1200 per semester)
Senior: $2600 per year ($1300 per semester)

Students are encouraged not to work more than 20 hours per week during the academic year. There is a limit to the amount of money a student may earn through the Student Employment Program. Once a student earns their awarded amount, their employment ends for the year. Check the Hourly Calculation Chart to find the appropriate number of hours a student may work per week.

Please note: any portion of the award that is unearned at the end of the semester will be forfeited.
