US Department of Education’s Federal Work-Study Experiment program
February 25, 2020
UTSA was recently invited to participate in the US Department of Education’s Federal Work-Study (FWS) Experiment program, which allows eligible students to receive FWS funds for work off-campus. The program lets students explore a work situation without creating a financial burden due to missed work-study wages, thus aiding in their career discovery. By making it possible for students to be paid for off-campus opportunities, the program eliminates one of the roadblocks to implementing experiential learning activities outside the classroom.
