Federal Work/Study Program Does anyone know if the job has to be on campus of whatever college or can it be off campus, for example at a retail store?

It usually has to be on campus or some place that has been accepted by the federal government as part of the work study program. Again, it usually has to be on campus.
To make sure you're following the guidelines you should talk with the work study program coordinator. My coordinator was very, very nice at getting me situated into a comfortable work environment within the campus that I actually enjoyed and grew from.
Your coordinator can probably supply you with a list of acceptable positions that may be open for your campus' workstudy program. Talk with them about wanting to learn more about the different types of duties you could have with work study.
Even if you aren't even college yet you should still get in the time to talk with the coordinator. A lot of these work-study positions fill up fast and you might end up getting stuck in the only position left (something you just don't want to do). Talk to them as soon as you can so you know what to expect, when to fill out forms, and if you can make any special requests in the beginning. ]
