I am emailing you to find out information to see how you handle, and what are the best practices concerning Resident Advisors (RA) and them having federal work study.  Currently our RA staff is composed of undergraduate students who have to meet our department standards to hold the position. Once hired the student RA is given a scholarship to cover room rent cost on their financial package. Many of these students also qualify for federal work study (FWS) and can work hours on campus. My question to you is:

1)      At your institution can your RA also work within the Residence life department using (FWS)? Why or why not?

2)      Do you know of any federal regulations that prohibit a student receiving a scholarship to work in the same department with (FWS) monies   that that scholarship is generated from?

3)      What is your institutions policy on this matter?

I thank you for your time and I hope you can provide me with the necessary feed back. I want to make sure my department is in line with the best practices on this matter.

Thank you
