Open Question: Work Study Program help! Please!?
Hi. I go to Miami Dade College and I recently was awarded a Pell Grant and the Work Study Program for $2,000 for the Fall Sememster. Now, in order to accept the grant which I wanted, I had to accept the work study program. So, I did and now, it is asking me to choose do I want an on-campus job, an on-campus job or off-campus related to my field, and/or to volunteer (I have to rank 1-2-3 to see which I prefer first, second, or third) which I haven’t chosen yet. I don’t know how the work study program works… I was told by the guy at the window that they pay you by hour, PLUS whatever your aw rd money is… But I dont think that’s how it works… I have a job giving me 28 hours and getting paid $7.50 an hour. Should I take it or not??? What should I do??? Please, help me!
