Appeal Process for New, Reinstated, or Increased Work-Study Awards

If you’re seeking additional funding for an existing Federal Work-Study award, requesting a previously declined Federal Work-Study award be reinstated or requesting consideration a new Federal Work-Study award this year, you may submit the appeal request using the form below. 

If you are requesting an increase to a current Federal Work-Study award, here’s how it works:

  1. Submit at the right time – Please submit your request when you have a remaining Work-Study balance of four work weeks or less of earnings. For example, a student working 10 hours/week at $15.00/hour should submit an appeal for additional funding once their balance reaches $600.
  2. Submit when actively working – We will only consider appeals if you are actively working in a Work-Study position and will run out of funding before the program end date.
  3. Submit via form

Once we confirm that you have eligibility in your total financial assistance package for additional Federal Work-Study funding, we will review your appeal. We make every effort to respond to all appeal requests as long as funding remains available.
