FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS

WORK-ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS

There are several programs offered that enable students to work part-time in various departments on campus.

A limited number of Graduate Assistantships are available for students enrolled in graduate programs. For more information, contact the appropriate director of graduate studies in business, education, or psychology.

The Federal Work Study Program is a federal program designed to expand part-time employment opportunities for students, particularly those from low-income families who are in need of the earnings in order to pursue a course of study. The awards made are not grants but maximum amounts a student can earn while working for Francis Marion University. Under this program, students may work a maximum of generally 20 hours per week while attending classes and 40 hours per week when classes are not in session. Checks are issued semi-monthly.

Non-Work Study Student positions are available to a limited number of students. These students are employed on a part-time basis by the various administrative offices, and academic departments/schools. Positions normally go to students with particular talents or skills that may be useful to the University schools or departments. The intent is to develop further the students' skills, creativity, sense of awareness, and responsibility.

Students interested in on-campus work-assistance programs should contact the Office of Financial Assistance. Information concerning part-time off-campus employment is available from the Office of Career Development.
