Working part-time
International students are permitted to work 20 hours a week. EU students are not subject to any restrictions on working.
The University recommends that students work for a maximum of 15 hours per week.
Students who wish to get a part-time job whilst they are studying can get help from our Careers Service, who advertise all kinds of student jobs and other working opportunities.
You can access this information at their office or online via the job vacancy database SAGE.
If you need a visa or entry clearance to enter the UK you will have to prove that you can support yourself financially whilst in the UK.
You cannot rely on part-time work in Edinburgh as part of your evidence of financial support.
