Summer Federal Off-Campus Work Study Program
Work Study is a federally funded program that offers financial support to students with a demonstrated financial need. Students who are eligible for Federal Work Study may choose to work on-campus or off-campus for a qualified organization. Off-campus work study funds will be awarded to eligible students who have secured employment from a qualified organization. Only off-campus organizations, that are nonprofit or government agencies located in the United States that sign a Federal Work Study Program Agreement are qualified to participate in this program.
Summer Federal Work Study Application Process

1) Notice of Qualified Employment Form
2) Drexel University Federal Work Study Program Agreement
3) A brief job description or a narrative of the student's duties at the Organization

Important Notice: This year, eligible students will be considered for the off-campus work study program only if the student confirms employment with a qualified organization. There are limited off-campus work study positions. Eligible students will be awarded on a first come, first served basis.
