How bad is this financial aid situation?

<p>I received federal work study in 2013-2014, and I want to continue with the same job in 2014-2015 (my supervisor wants to keep me). I submitted my FAFSA right after tax season. Nothing has been processed, so I went to financial aid a couple weeks ago. They said they had a system reset while back, and are still processing FAFSAs for the beginning of the year. My boss called them yesterday, because there are a ton of employees with no financial aid and Summer term starts June 30, and they said they are really behind and have no idea whatsoever when anybody's stuff is going to get done. As of now, only one out of about a dozen workers in my area has actually received next year's financial aid.</p>

<p>I'm not sure if I should be worried about my job right now. What happens if financial aid doesn't get it processed before the quarter starts? I suspect they'd demand I be let go, but if that happened to everybody in my situation right now entire departments, including mine, would fall apart.</p>

<p>Can your boss pay you from a part of his/her budget that is not dependent on work-study funding? Find out about that.</p>
