The College Work-Study Program is a federally funded financial aid program whose purpose is to stimulate and promote part-time employment for students in need of earnings to finance their educational expenses. Work-study jobs are not intended to replace existing staff positions.

How does this affect me?

Some jobs are designated as "work-study" and only qualifying students (those with work-study in their financial aid package) may apply. Most jobs however do not have this restriction. For more information on work-study, please visit the Office of Financial Aid.

How do I check if I have been awarded work-study?

  • Go to http://stuinfo.msu.edu

  • Login using your MSU NetID (everything before @ in your MSU e-mail address) and e-mail password. (For example, sparty would be the NetID for sparty@msu.edu.) Click "Login".

NOTE: "Student Employment" does not mean you have work-study. Visit the Office of Financial Aid to learn about the difference between Student Employment and Work-Study.
