The purpose of the Federal Work Study program is to provide opportunities for students to earn additional incomes to assist with paying for living and educational expense.
Students and universities participating in the FWS program are required to adhere to the rules and regulations established by the Department of Education that governs the program.
Through the FWS program, students can work part-time while enrolled in school to help finance their college education. Below are some rules that must be adhered to as a student worker.
For students to check if they qualify for Work Study: Check your financial aid info in Gibson. The financial aid package may include work study and a student needs to accept it. The amount of the financial aid/work study package varies student to student. Find instructions here !
An average work study package estimate is $3,500 provided per term to the student. If a student earns $10 per hour, it equates to 350 hours they can work per term.
Work Study ends when classes formally ends, typically the Thursday at the end of the pay period before final exams.
Work Study package covers 70% of the students' salary, with the remainder + fringe (taxes) covered by the department.
Departments can request for Work Study students to send them a screenshot of their financial aid/work study package on Gibson.
The Student Employment Office provides an Excel calculator found here to calculate remaining work study hours available week to week. Student can enter the total work study package/award, the # of hours worked during the week, and hourly wage = number of work study hours remaining.
Maximum work hours
During the school year, students may work a maximum of 20 hours per week regardless of the number of jobs they have.
If a student has more than one job, the total hours worked at all jobs must not exceed 20 hours per week.
During the summer, students may work up to 37.5 hours per week.
Students are allowed a maximum of one work study job and two non-work study jobs.
Payment
Students with hourly jobs will be paid on a bi-weekly basis.
The payroll biweekly pay calendar is located on your Kronos.
All Tulane employees are required to make arrangements with Student Employment for direct deposit to receive payroll payments.
Student must complete the Authorization for Direct Deposit form along with other hiring paperwork. The bi-weekly payments will then be deposited directly into the student’s bank account.
Work during classes
Students are not permitted to work during class time even if a class has been cancelled. All student workers must provide their supervisor with an official class schedule at the beginning of each enrollment term.
Inability to work a scheduled shift
It is your responsibility to communicate to the office and your supervisor when you are unable to work. Please let your supervisor know in a timely manner if you will be unable to work. If you are sick, let your supervisor know as soon as possible.
