About this Position
Federal Work Study
Eligible students can earn up to $12.00 per hour.
The federal work-study program (FWSP) enables eligible students to be employed by OSU-OKC either on or off campus. This program is designed to give students the opportunity to work part-time to help meet the costs of their post-secondary education. Rate of Pay: $10.50 an hour on-campus; $11.00 an hour for Community Service; and $12.00 an hour for Community Service tutoring positions. Students may work up to 20 hours per week depending on individual eligibility, which is determined through the Financial Aid office.
Four reasons why Federal Work Study is the way to earn money:
- Work hours are typically scheduled conveniently around your classes
