Student eligibility is primarily based on financial need. This federal program provides jobs for the students who have financial need and must earn a part of their educational expenses. Students are paid the current federal minimum wage, and the number of hours worked is based on financial need and on how the combination of work and study hours will affect the student's academic progress. Assignments are made on various offices on campus. This loan is for dependent or independent students who demonstrate financial need.
Interest rates are low and payments begin six months following graduation.
