Is there any working hours limit for on-campus jobs?

Hi There,

Can anyone work full-time (>30 hours/week) in on-campus (in any institute or organization located within campus boundary) while being a full-time graduate student?

If yes, would you please provide me the link?

Thank you, :)

As far as I am aware and others will correct me there is no specific limit for on campus work whereas of course off campus is restricted top 20 hours per week. I guess depends whether a student wants to focus on and be successful with their course or focus on work so just a matter of getting the balance right which is why for off campus the 20 hour rule exists to sort of impose a balance.

As far as I know, Student can work maximum 20hrs/week while full-time study that doesn't matter you're working on-campus or off-campus but full-time student can work only 20hrs/week..

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong..

I went through few University websites and found that IRCC does not limit any hours for on-campus jobs.

Further, I got the below line from CIC website.

" There are no legal restrictions preventing students from working on-campus in addition to working the maximum 20 hours per week off-campus."
