[quote=Anonymous]I did work study my freshman year. I worked 8 hours/week in the school of architecture office. I have ADD and it actually helped me structure my time better. I need downtime, but when I have too much I tend to procrastinate on the things I actually need to do because I always feel like I can do it later. I don't remember what I made hourly, but this was back in the early 2000s. I had a job every summer and during my senior year of high school, so working wasn't a new thing for me. I get you feel like it's a bait and switch but if there's a disclaimer on the letter then this is what can happen. You can either decline and pay the $3500 if it's that big of a deal or your kid can do work study. I think it's a bad precedent to set for your kid that you'll bail them out of having to put some skin in the game before even trying the work study option, but you do you. [/quote]
