The VA Work-Study Program
The VA has a Work-Study Program which offers employment to those attending school at least three-quarter time and receiving educational benefits. Payment is hourly at the minimum wage. An advance check for the first 50 hours can be sent to the student who is accepted, if requested. After the advance is worked off, a check is generated for each additional 50 hours worked.
Veterans under Chapters 30, 31, 1606 and 1607 can apply, as can children and spouses of veterans under Chapter 35. Two Students are accepted into the program for each semester. For more information, stop by the office or give us a call.
