Can I work while studying?
Please realize that you will have little time left for a part time
job. One ECTS is equivalent to a workload of 28 hours. A semester
(5 months) contains 30 ECTS which means that you will spend 840
hours on your studies. This translates to spending 40 hours per
week on your studies. Consequently, you will realize it is
difficult to combine your studies with work. We would also like to
stress that if you do not speak Dutch it will be very difficult to
find a job.
Depending on your nationality you are allowed to work a limited couple of hours a week. More information can be found here: http://www.rug.nl/education/international-students/financial-matters/employment-and-study-in-groningen
