Part-time work in the UK whilst being a student

Most full-time international students are legally allowed to work for up to 20 hours a week during the academic term and full-time during vacations. The minimum wage in the UK for workers aged 22 and older is £5.52 per hour and £4.60 per hour for workers aged 18-21. The University can provide assistance with finding work and also has a web page dealing with part-time and vacation work

Part-time work is a useful source of income but it is important not to rely on this as not all students manage to secure a part-time job and you need to make sure that it doesn't affect your studies.
