<p>Students with work study, do you put down on campus job applications that you have work study? Is that something employers should know before they decide to extend an interview? I'm wondering if a work study student is more appealing to employers than a non work study student.</p>
<p>Yes, that’s the whole point of Work Study - to make you more attractive to employers.</p>
<p>Some jobs are only open to work study so you won’t even get to apply if you’re not eligible.</p>

<p>Most of my on campus job applications don’t have questions asking if I’m work study. So I’m just putting them where they ask what skills qualify me for the position.</p>
<p>Yes, because it shows that you have experience. Put it!</p>
<p>Are you asking if you should include the fact that you have work-study funding? Yes, most certainly, since some jobs will only take work-study applicants. Even the ones that can’t use the work-study funding won’t hold it against you, so definitely do it.</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m just listing “Work Study Student” as a skill on the application and my resume…don’t know where else to put it if they don’t specifically ask.</p>
<p>I would note that you have work-study funding and tell them how much, that could be a criteria if they hire you, simply because that means the school will give them that amount of money with which to pay you.</p>
<p>at the college i go to, on campus student position only hire work study students, you should go to your financial aid office that should be able to better answer this question.</p>
