Federal Work-Study: Institutional Match Aedra Reynolds 12 Jan 2009 19:02 EST

Greetings,

Our institution is in the process of developing policy guidance related to
Federal Work-Study expenditures charged to grants.  The current discussion
centers on whether the 25% institutional match portion of a work-study
student's salary may be charged to a federal grant.

Our research on the subject has resulted in conflicting guidance between the
FWS Handbook, CFRs and other University’s interpretations of the written
materials.

We would appreciate any feedback or discussion with regard to the FWS
guidance on this matter, as well as whether your institution interprets the
guidelines to allow the institutional match portion to be charged to federal
grants.

If it is preferable to respond directly to me, rather than the listserv, you
may do so at: xxxxxx@uoregon.edu.

Thank you!
