The Office of Financial Aid is excited to announce Federal Work Study (FWS) wage rates will increase from $8 per hour to $10 per hour with the start of Fall 2022! The increase will better reflect the services provided by our FWS students on campus.
Entering freshmen who have been awarded may currently view their FWS eligibility through Eagle Online. Continuing students may check their FWS eligibility late May by viewing their Awards for 22-23 through Eagle Online.
If you are a student who is not yet awarded, but wish to be considered for FWS, please contact financialaid@tntech.edu with your full name and T#.
Students must accept an FWS award prior to searching for open positions within the Student Job Portal. All eligible FWS students will be notified by campus email once the Student Job Portal is open later this summer.

Is this the semester when you stop letting your first draft be your final draft? When you actually have the time to revise and edit your paper for class? Do you struggle with revising for content, and instead spend all your time making minor grammar and punctuation changes? Does your instructor keep telling you to revise your work, and you’re just not sure what they want? WEST, the Writing Excellence Studio at Tech, is here to help! On Tuesday, 4/12, we will be leading a dead hour workshop on revision strategies. We will talk about organization, how to see your work with new eyes, how to focus on cohesion and flow, and all sorts of useful things that will help you revise your papers like a professional writer. The workshop will be in Henderson Hall 304B, from 11:00-11:50. No registration is required, and all are welcome! For more information, contact Dr. Brian Williams (bjwilliams@tntech.edu).
