Hi There,
Has anybody managed to combine part-time job and full-time MBA?
How much time study takes per day/week?
Thanks in advance!
As an international applicant, I was able to work up to 20 hrs/week but I believe I was limited to only working on campus. I believe the rule is still the same - you can work up to 20 hrs but only on campus during your first year. The pay is usually not I think you can apply for a hardship or special exemption to allow you working off-campus or doing something as an internship. However, all are harder to pull off due to the time you have available and your opportunity cost.
For example, would you rather work making $20/hr or search for a job that may earn $50/hr?
I ended up working my second semester about 20 hrs/week as a front desk manager at a local hotel to help pay the bills - was still my favorite job I ever had. The team was great. Work easy and I was getting free food as a part of the deal. However, it made it really hard to focus on being able to study and look for a real job. I ended up working for a few months after graduation and still had no full time job offer. I ended up quitting (which everyone thought was crazy) and once I quit, I found a full time job within a few weeks.... it is opportunity cost.
I think you can but only for a short term.
