What is a Federal Work-Study?

Federal Work-Study is designed to promote the part-time employment of students who are pursuing an eligible degree at WCTC. Work-Study, because it is federally funded, is included in the total financial aid package you have been awarded. If you have not been awarded Federal Work-Study and are interested in employment, please contact Financial Aid to see if you may qualify.

Even if you have not been awarded Federal Work-Study, feel free to use this page to assist you in your employment search.
