To participate, you must be awarded Federal Work-Study (Work-Study) with your financial aid. The Federal Work-Study Program was created to stimulate and promote part-time employment for students who have financial need and who need earnings to pursue a college education. It allows students to meet their educational expenses without incurring a lot of debt and is intended to provide worthwhile job opportunities for qualified students. 

Your Work-Study award contributes more than financial assistance to your college education. It offers you a double bonus--education plus job experience. In increasingly competitive job markets, employers seek applicants who have employment as well as academic experience. For more information go to: http://wserver.scc.losrios.edu/~finaid/
