I don’t believe the school is required to “find the extra funds” if the student exceeds their federal work study allotment…even if there is still unfilled need.
Could you provide some evidence this is a mandate…because in our experience…once the qorkmstudy money ran out…to continue the job…the school had to foot the bill…and sometimes that wasn’t possible. Our work study employers helped monitor our hours so we would not exceed the amount provided to us.
