Meet Us in the Middle: Affordability for the Working Student

No student’s Expected Student Contribution should be greater than the amount that can be earned by working 40 hours per week over the summer and 20 hours per week throughout the academic year at Washington State minimum wage.

We urge higher education stakeholders to make it possible for students to work through school again.

The ASUW Student Debt Reduction Working Group has critically examined the issues students face in paying for their education and drafted a report with recommendations to administration and policy makers.
