Edit Work Study

You can use the Awards tab on the Awarding page to edit work study or Federal Work Study (FWS) for a student.

There can be instances where additional work study payments are needed when a student worked more hours than anticipated. When the limit is configured, you can still add additional payments up to $300.00 by increasing the value for Amount and adding additional payments.

  • Common - Student - View authorization

If your institution has configured permissions for fund sources, you must also be in a staff group that has permission to edit the fund source.
