<p>If I accept my offer for Work Study, does it take out of my financial aid, or is it money into my pocket like a regular job?</p>
<p>It's like a regular job.</p>
<p>It's like a regular job without the taxes, IIRC.</p>
<p>it is ral money, but you have to get a job in order to have access to the funds.... WORK study. you just don't get the funds distributed by accepting it.</p>
<p>I'm in a work study position at a state college in Fla, and I basically just run the gym's weight room. I get a check once a month, while not much, it gives me some extra money between classes.</p>
