Federal Work-Study Money Available to Law Students During Summer

College Work Study is available on a first-come first-served basis for Summer 2010. College Work Study is a federally funded program based on financial need available to undergraduate students only, except during the summer months when we open it up to all students when funding allows.

Maximum earning potential is $5,400 based upon “need” as determined by the Expected Family Contribution. College Work Study positions are posted on line at http://www.uakron.edu/finaid from the menu select Student Employment.

Students must have a 2010-2011 FAFSA on file at time of application, and complete a 2010 Summer Aid Application. A minimum 2.5 g.p.a is required. The summer aid application deadline is June 1.
