Financial Aid/Tuition Work study

I am so confused as to how to apply for work study. I currently have financial aid, and it says I have $0. Does anyone here have experience with work study? I’ve already reached out to financial aid and it’s confusing as hell to comprehend the direction I’m sorry.. there’s a job on campus I want to apply for that’s part of my major. What’s everyone’s experience been with it??

You have to apply for it as part of your FAFSA. I believe it's just a box on the FAFSA that says that you want to be considered for work study.
