Federal College Work Study Update:

There are going to be changes in the way college work-study is awarded starting with the 2012-2013 academic year. The reasons of the changes are to better utilize the budgeted funds without causing confusion to the student and eliminate the cleanup of data and use of a waiting list. Our ultimate goal is to streamline the process a student must go through to receive work-study funds from awarding to authorizing and working. 
There are going to be changes in the way college work-study is awarded starting with the 2012-2013 academic year. The purpose of the changes are to better utilize the budgeted funds without causing confusion to the student and eliminate the cleanup of data and using a waiting list. Our ultimate goal is to streamline the process a student must go through to receive work-study funds from awarding to authorizing and working. 
The new process begins with elimination of the auto-awarding of work-study. Now students who are really interested in participating in college work-study are required to complete a Work-Study Application. The application is available online and may be submitted online as well at the following link: https://dynamicforms.ngwebsolutions.com/EsignDisplayForm.aspx?RequestedDynamicFormTemplate=f3f5d41b-99de-4cda-92f5-6ab502a5b227&Clear=Y
The Work Study Coordinator will review each application on a first-come, first-serve basis to confirm eligibility. You will be notified by email whether the application has been approved or not. Once the application is approved, your financial aid award will be updated to reflect work-study funds. In the email, you will be instructed of the requirements you must complete before you will be able to start working. Those requirements include submission of W-4 and I-9 forms as well as the Work-Study Authorization Form. All three documents must be submitted before you start working. This will also ensure no delay in processing your timesheets for payroll. 
You will find online a list of positions currently available across campus. If you find another department or area willing to hire you for a work-study position, they must contact the Work Study Coordinator before completing your Work-Study Authorization Form. The list of positions contains a brief job description as well as preferred majors to fill the positions. We want to make the work-study experience more than just a job but help in building your experiences. We are hoping this will assist you in pursuing a job after graduation.
We hope this new process does not cause any issues. If you have any concerns/questions/comments, please forward them to our Work Study Coordinator, Mr. Brandon Campbell at campbellb@lincolnu.edu.
