Work Study
Money a student earns while attending college.
Work Study earnings do not have to be repaid.
Federal work-study pays you to work part time at GOCC or off campus while you attend school. It pays minimum wage, and you can work up to 20 hours per week. The amount of your actual work-study award depends on your financial need and the available funding.
To be considered for work-study, you must:
- Have a current Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on file, along with any required follow-up paperwork
- Have financial need
- Be enrolled in at least six credit hours
- Meet GOCC Satisfactory Academic Progress standard
- Meet all federal financial aid eligibility requirements
If you are interested in work-study contact the GOCC Financial Aid Office at 269-294-4260 or via email.
