Work study - financial aid question

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Virginia

<p>Hey, hope everything's going well for you all.</p>

<p>I was just wondering how I can find out whether or not I'm eligible for work study at UVA as an incoming student. The university's</a> website says that all "non-Virginian" undergraduates are automatically considered, but I'm in-state, and my financial aid award right now does not include anything about work study.</p>

<p>Is there a separate process for requesting work study if you're in-state or something? I got work study from W&M and Wake Forest, and I find it odd that UVA only gave me loans. ):</p>

<p>Thank you, and excited to be part of UVA's 2015 :D</p>

<p>If you are not eligible for official work study, you can still apply for part-time jobs with the university or its vendors. I’m guessing that dining services is probably hiring, for example.</p>

<p>Thanks for the help. I’ll do some more research. What would you say the pros/cons are of working within the university versus outside?</p>
