Federal Work-Study

Federal Work-Study

Federal Work Study (FWS) is a federally funded work program that allows Ventura College students to earn money through a part-time job on campus.

The Federal Work-Study (FWS) award pays 100% of the student's earned income.

The Federal Work-Study (FWS) Job Fair is a great opportunity for eligible students to explore paid part-time job openings on campus. Join us on Thursday, July 31, to meet with various departments actively hiring for the upcoming semester. You'll have the chance to learn about available positions, ask questions, and find a job that fits your schedule and interests. FWS jobs are flexible, help you gain valuable work experience, and support your educational goals.
