- Be admitted to a UNH College of Professional Studies degree or post-baccalaureate program
- Have a valid FAFSA for the current financial aid year
- Have financial need from the FAFSA

Federal Work Study awards are based on availability from an annual federal allocation and we cannot guarantee every eligible student will be able to earn a work study award.
