The 2021-2022 Federal Work Study application is now available.
The Federal Work-Study program is a form of need-based financial aid. Need and eligibility is determined based on your FAFSA. Students are assigned positions across campus in a wide variety of fields.
By the end of the academic year, each student must earn 24 credit hours with a 2.5 GPA in order to renew their W award(s). If the student fails to meet the requirements, the student has the option to appeal the denial decision by completing this scholarship appeal form and submitting additional documentation for review to the scholarship appeals committee. If additional documentation is needed please email the documentation to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. The student will receive an email notification of the appeal decision once the scholarship appeals committee reviews the appeals after the deadline. This request will be processed only if a completed packet is received by the deadline of July 30, 2021.
At The W, we believe that the cost of a college education should not be a deterrent to your pursuit of earning a college degree. One of the Office of Financial Aid's goals is to provide quality service and financial assistance to all our eligible students – new entering freshmen, transfer, continuing, and graduate students.
The W uses a site known as BANNER to manage all of your records for your entire time at the University. You will receive your MUW ID number and your MUW PIN in your acceptance letter from the Office of Admissions.
