This program assists needy or disadvantaged Washington residents who enroll at one of Washington's public or independent, two or four-year institutions, or participating proprietary schools. No separate application is necessary. This program provides financial assistance to eligible students through part-time employment. An equally important program purpose is the relationship of that employment to the student's academic pursuits or career goals.
Funding is provided through state appropriation paired with an employer match.
Application for this program is automatic upon your application for financial aid at the institution.
