Columbia University Student Financial Services

Departments within Columbia University may qualify as FWS employers if they have been given a FWS allocation by the Office of the Provost. This allocation represents the 100% dollar amount given to your department and the total amount students working in your department may earn. A FWS account will be charged the 75% share of students’ wages. The employer’s departmental account will be charged the employer’s 25% share of students’ wages.

Creating and Posting Job Positions

Departments that have received a budget allocation from the Office of the Provost may create and post job listings in the Federal Work-Study online system.  To begin, request log in permission.
