Southwest Tech’s Student Employment Opportunities

Federal Work Study

Find work that complements your study! Federal Work-Study (FWS) is a need-based program that is awarded to eligible students based on the filing of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Work-study funds are limited, and are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. The FWS program provides jobs to students with financial need, allowing you to earn money to help pay for educational expenses.

Student Employment

For students who are not eligible for Federal Work Study, there are still employment opportunities on campus.
