normally must be received before May 1.
Paid Practicum Placements.
Advanced
students in GSAPP may receive stipends for practicum work
depending upon the agency, the student`s experience, and financial
need. This is determined immediately prior to or during the student`s

Federal Work-Study Program (FWSP).
Federal
work-study employment may be offered as a self-help portion of the
financial aid award to U.S. citizens and eligible noncitizens.
Application for this program as well as for all federal aid programs is
made by filing the FAFSA. On-campus jobs are available in many areas,
including GSAPP. Selection for a particular job is based on skills, job
availability, university needs, and student preference. The assigned
employment opportunity is based on an expectation that the student will
work between 6 and 20 hours weekly throughout the fall and spring
academic terms. During the summer, students may work up to 35 hours per
week. Students also may work off campus in not-for-profit agencies. A
number of paid community services positions are available. Off-campus
employment usually is limited to returning students. Contact the
Student Employment Office for further information. All students who
want to work through the FWSP must receive authorization before
beginning a job.
