Financial
Aid Work Study
Both
the Federal Work Study and the Michigan Work Study
programs provide access to student employment
opportunities – both on- and off-campus. Students may
be eligible for either the federal or state Work Study
award, by indicating their interest on the FAFSA. The
Work Study award is actually a “maximum eligibility
amount” that the student may earn, if they secure a
qualified student employment position. The award is
then paid-out to the student in the form of wages.
These Work Study “earnings” may be used to assist with
various education-related expenses.
Once
the student earns their maximum eligibility amount, the
hiring department will determine the student's
employment status.
Work
Study eligibility does provide unique opportunities for
either on-campus student employment offered by the
College or for off-campus Work Study employment offered
by qualified non-profit organizations and/or
local/state/federal public agencies. However, receiving
a Work Study award does not guarantee employment at
Lansing Community College. Student employees are hired
based on skills and abilities.
Contact
the Center for Employment Services (CES), room 218
Gannon Building (GB), visit the web site
www.lcc.edu/ces,
or call (517) 483-1172 to explore available
opportunities. CES also provides both on- and
off-campus employment opportunities to students who have
not received a Work Study award.
