Federal Work Study Updates and Reminders

FWS reminders from SFS

At the last Fiscal Administrators' meeting, our colleagues in Student Financial Services (SFS) shared some crucial reminders about hiring federal work-study (FWS) student workers. (Fiscal Administrators' meetings are full of useful information.  See the schedule and past meeting coverage on the UVAFinance website.)

Here are the highlights: 

  • Resources are available on the SFS FWS Administrators website.  (This includes a video and slides from their recent FWS training session.)
  • Remember to pre-verify students in Workday.  Awards are available in the FWS QlikSense app.
  • Choosing the correct job family and job profile is critical.
  • Be mindful of hiring and costing allocation dates.
  • FWS Grant for 2024-25: GR103008 IN-SFS FFA Federal Work Study (FWS) Program FY25
