<p>I doubt he has to EARN the entire 2500 WS in order to get the free money.</p>
<p>If he accepts the WS job, and works one day a week, he’ll likely fulfill the requirement to do W-S, but he won’t earn the entire 2500.</p>
<p>Kids often don’t end up working their entire W-S amount. I doubt the school will go back and take back the free money.</p>
<p>I explained that he had an unpaid internship. They were fine with that and completely understood the importance of it. I even explained that if the internship should end by the end of the first or second quarter that he would then pursue the WS and they stated that would be fine. They said that its really just an option available to him if he wants it. S could even get a paid job off campus, they didn’t care at all. It was just a matter of giving him an option to make some money. So it looks like it will all work out fine. Thanks…</p>
<p>It’s not work study. It’s just suggested employment. Either way, good luck.</p>
<p>for the record when I called they did call it federal work study</p>
<p>If it is indeed federal work study, sometimes there are opportunities to do what would normally be volunteer work and be paid for it through FWS. Something to be aware of if he’s be doing that kind of thing anyhow.</p>
<p>My d’s wasnt she worked in a library graveyard shift 11am to 3am and then got up for classes dont think that is very easy</p>
<p>^ She chose that job. Work study jobs aren’t given to you, they’re applied for. </p>
<p>No. Not all work study jobs are easy. I work at a domestic violence shelter as a crisis line advocate- not easy, trust me. However, I chose that and most ws jobs are incredibly easy. Plus they’re generally flexible.</p>
