Federal Work-Study
Federal Work-Study (FWS) is financial aid that is based on financial need and must be earned through student employment. Many job opportunities are available to eligible students on- or off-campus and these experiences can be great sources of professional development. UT’s Office of Financial Aid administers work study money and assignments.

The Center for Career Development houses the federal Student Job Location and Development (JLD)program which offers assistance to students who may not qualify for the federal work-study program but who choose to work at various student employment opportunities throughout the university and community.
