Do not lose your Federal Work Study!
Students awarded Federal Work-Study (FWS) that do not secure a job by the October 10, 2025 fall hiring deadline may keep half of their award for the spring semester.
To defer your FWS until the spring semester, complete the Federal Work Study Deferment Form (PDF) by the date indicated on the form and upload it to the Student Service Center (SSC). Failure to submit the form by the deadline will result in the cancellation of the entire FWS award.
