What is Federal Work-Study? Federal Work-Study (FWS) is a form of financial aid. Unlike other forms of financial aid, the FWS award must be earned through a job. All of our hourly student employment positions are Federal Work-Study eligible. Eligibility for FWS is determined by Student Financial Services; students must file a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to be evaluated for Federal Work-Study, as well as other types of aid, each year. If a student is eligible for Federal Work-Study, the student’s financial aid award letter will list the dollar amount of the Federal Work-Study grant. The student may also check the Hofstra portal to see if they are awarded Federal Work-Study grant money. For further information regarding financial aid packages, visit hofstra.edu/financial-aid and click on Meet Your Counselor, email studentfinancialservices@hofstra.edu, or call 516-4638000. The Office of Student Financial Services is located in Room 206 Memorial Hall, South Campus. Where can students find out about off-campus jobs and internships? Students should visit the Center for Career Design and Development located at Room 110 Weller Hall, South Campus, and read the center’s e-newsletters through their Hofstra Pride email accounts. Students can schedule appointments through NAVIGATE in the Hofstra portal.
