Abstract: The primary purpose of NASFAA's Examining Federal Work-Study Task Force was to examine what changes institutions implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic to their Federal Work-Study (FWS) programs (especially given the temporary nature of the FWS flexibilities), what challenges they are facing now as they look to transition back to the original regulations, and what flexibilities may be required for this program to continue to be successful in the future. Along with recommendations for the Department of Education and Congress on ways to improve and bolster the FWS program, the task force researched and put forth best practices institutions are using in utilizing their FWS funding.
