A Student Aid Report must be received by the Financial Aid Office in order to establish eligibility. A student may be enrolled less that half-time and receive a Pell Grant if their EFC is low enough. The amount of the Pell Grant award is based on the student's enrollment status. Some community service positions are available off-campus.
Compensation generally is set at the minimum wage rate.
Students typically work 7-20 hours per week on a schedule mutually agreeable to worker and supervisor. This program enables a student with need to borrow directly from the local bank or credit union. New borrowers will have a variable interest rate on their loan. Repeat borrowers will have the same interest rate on their new loans as on their outstanding loans. Any student seeking a Federal Stafford Loan must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid and have a Student Aid Report on file in the Financial Aid Office prior to being considered for loan funds.
