The Federal Work-Study and Institutional Employment programs at EWC provide part-time work positions for students. To be eligible, students must be accepted, registered as degree-seeking at Eastern Wyoming College, and meet eligibility requirements as established in the EWC Satisfactory Academic Progress Policies for Financial Aid. Because Federal Work-Study is a need-based program, students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine eligibility.

Work-Study Program

A federal student employment program based on financial need (as determined by completion of the FAFSA) to assist students with living expenses while attending college. Students may NOT work when they have scheduled classes and are encouraged to obtain a job that is related toward their degree or certificate program.

Value: $10.00-$15.00 per hour.

Institutional Employment

On-campus jobs are available to students who do not qualify for Federal Work Study but do meet Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Policies and desire to work.

Value: $10.00 per hour.

Earnings from Work-Study and Institutional Employment positions are intended to provide funds for college-related expenses. On- and off-campus jobs can also provide experience and training in preparation for future employment, and community service opportunities with jobs in areas like the America Reads Program.
