work-study programs
Campus job scholarships
Work-study programs are arrangements, typically at colleges and universities, that allow students to work part-time jobs while pursuing their studies, with earnings helping to offset educational costs.
In the United States, federal work-study is a form of financial aid where the government subsidizes wages for eligible students who demonstrate financial need.
Jobs are often on campus in libraries, dining halls, or administrative offices, though some programs place students in community service or career-related positions.
