Budget Managers / Student Supervisors – Federal Work-Study Update

As of May 9th, federal work-study funds allotted to the University will be fully expended.
If you have students working for you remotely, you can continue to pay them federal work-study through the pay period ending May 16th. Any timecards for students after May 16th will need to be charged to university student wages. Fiscal year 2021 federal work-study will be available beginning with the pay period ending July 11th.
Students who had been working in your area and were unable to work remotely, were being paid through federal work-study COVID-19 exception, will receive half of their standard work schedule for the pay period ending May 16th. At that point, the federal work-study COVID-19 exception will be complete.
Students working remotely and being paid through university student wages or a research project/grant are not affected by this announcement.
Effective immediately, FY20 federal work-study budgets will be adjusted to actual expenses. Organizations that have students working remotely being paid against federal work-study will be provided the budget amount needed to cover actual expenses through the pay period ending May 16th.
