What is a Federal work-study?
- Federal Work-Study is money granted by the federal government through the FSU Financial 援助 Department that is included in your financial aid package. You can redeem these funds by part time work at an on-campus job.
Where/How do I find out if I have a work-study or not?
- Log in to myframingham.com and click accounts. 搜索 for the box titled Financial 援助 Information. Click the hyperlink that says Review Account Details of Financial 援助 Transactions. Once you are redirected to your financial aid information, click the tab that is labeled Awards. There, you should find a breakdown of all the financial aid granted to you for the school year.
An example would be: Federal Work-Study yes X__ No___ $1800
