Three simple steps to land the gig

Earn $10 an hour and up to $3,000 per academic year with an on-campus job.

Step One

Fill out your Free Application for Federal Student Aid. Once you have your FAFSA ready make sure you have SJCC listed as one of your schools. This can be done online. For more information, visit the SJCC Financial Aid Office or

http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/

Step Two

Fill out the SJCC’s Federal Work-Study Application available online at

http://www.sjcc.edu/data/files/gallery/FinancialAidFileGallery/FWS_application.pdf

Step Three

Attend the appointment that Financial Aid will set. The appointment will be part interview and part information about the FWS program at SJCC.

These appointment dates are set up and allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis so make sure you get the first steps done early in the spring semester to reserve your spot in the FWS program for the upcoming year.

Editor’s Note: If you have an idea for a job on campus that should be under federal work-study, make sure to talk to the dean of the department overseeing the work, or a faculty member or club adviser to create new work-study positions.
