The Community Based Federal Work-Study Program is an opportunity to earn money and gain related experience in the community while you are completing your degree at William Paterson University. The goal of this program is to provide you with meaningful service and learning experiences relevant to your field of interest while supporting the work of non-profit, educational, and government organizations.
Students who are federal work-study eligible have the option of participating in the off-campus community service program. These positions would allow students to work in local non-profit organizations as their federal work-study placement. These positions allow students to work a maximum of 20 hours per week and earn up to $16.00 per/hour. To learn more about the community-based service program please schedule an appointment with Sonia Wilson by calling the Career Center at 973-720-2282 or via email at Wilsons181@wpunj.edu
If you’re applying for a Federal Work-Study position, please make sure to attend a Federal Work Study Student Employment Workshop or watch the webinar.
