Student Employment

Student Employment & Work-Study at Evangel

Each year, the federal government helps fund on-campus and off-campus student employment through the Federal Work-Study (FWS) program and other campus jobs. If you’re looking for ways to help pay for college, working on campus is a great place to start.


📝 How Do I Find a Campus Job?

  • Log into Handshake and search Evangel University Student Employment as the company.
  • Spot Jobs include babysitting, housework, yard work, etc. Use the same company name to search.
  • Download the Student Employment Application attached to the job post.
  • Follow application instructions, reach out to the hiring department, and schedule a brief interview.
  • Have questions? Email Career Services.

💡 What is Federal Work-Study?

  • FWS is a need-based program that allows students to earn money for college expenses by working part-time.
  • To qualify, file the FAFSA and demonstrate financial need.
  • Work-study is not an automatic award—you must secure a job and work to earn it.
  • Wages are taxable and reported on your FAFSA as earned income.

✅ How to Get Approved for FWS?

  • Submit the FAFSA (Evangel school code: 002463).
  • Financial Aid will determine if you’re eligible for FWS.
  • If awarded, find a job and begin earning your award.
  • Limited funding means not all eligible students may receive FWS.
