Students should be aware of the University’s employment limits, which are often harsher than the number of hours a student visa allows them to work. As a result, the following is given for your convenience.
During term time, a student visa for full-time degree studies permits you to work for a maximum of 20 hours per week. This is a total of no more than 20 hours a week, including paid and unpaid work for one or more organizations. The 20 hours can’t be spread out over a longer length of time. The Home Office defines a ‘week’ as a period of seven days commencing on Monday. This encompasses both remunerated and unremunerated work. As previously stated, the University imposes stricter working limits, which you must follow.
