If meeting all criteria for the Javelina Promise, students can expect to see the award in their financial aid award package after bills have been posted for the Fall or Spring semester. This will usually occur in early August for Fall or early January for Spring.

The Work-Study Program offers an opportunity for our students with financial need to seek employment on- and off-campus by allowing them to earn money to help pay for educational expenses.  Eligible students are offered a generic work-study award, which may vary per student. The generic award helps students market themselves within TAMUK for work-study positions.

Once awarded Work-Study as part of their financial aid package, it is up to the student to find an approved job. Available jobs and their description can be found via JavelinaCareers, once a profile has been created.

Work-study does not pay for tuition and fees; nor does it get disbursed with other financial aid awards. Students earn their work-study award by working up to 19 hours a week in our student employment program and received a bi-weekly paycheck.

Students can submit a request to be considered for workstudy by submitting a ‘wait-list request’. All eligible students will be considered if funding is available. If awarded, an email will be sent to a student after the term begins to inform the student on their eligibility.
