What conditions must be met for a work-study position to qualify under the waiver of the FWS institutional-share requirement for mathematics tutors?
Since July 1, 1999, the Department has authorized a federal share of up to 100 percent of the compensation a FWS student earns while employed as a mathematics tutor for elementary school students (through the ninth grade). The FWS student must perform the work for the school itself; for a federal, state, or local public agency; or for a private nonprofit organization. Check with the appropriate state agency for the minimum grade level for elementary school, since state laws vary in their definitions.
