Can I work as a student enrolled in the full time program?
First-year law students enrolled in the full-time program are not permitted to work. However, AUWCL policy permits full-time students to undertake a maximum of 10 hours per week of employment during the first-year academic semesters after obtaining permission from the Office of Student Affairs by emailing studentaffairs@wcl.american.edu. After your first year, full-time students may not engage in employment in excess of 20 hours per week. Students who are employed in excess of 20 hours must register for the part-time program.
