Can I work while studying in the UK?


Yes, you can work while studying in the UK as an international student! If you are studying on a Student Visa (previously Tier 4), you are typically allowed to work:

- Up to 20 hours per week during term time.
- Full-time during official university holidays.

These work rights apply to degree-level and above courses at a university listed on the UKVI’s list of recognised bodies. For courses below degree level or at publicly funded colleges, work hours may be limited to 10 hours per week.

Types of Work Allowed:
- Most part-time jobs, internships, or work placements.
- Some restrictions apply: you cannot be self-employed, work as a professional sportsperson/coach, or work as a doctor or dentist in training (unless on a recognised foundation programme).

Benefits of Working While Studying:
- Gain valuable work experience.
- Offset living expenses.
- Improve your English and workplace skills.
