Can the university give me advice on trying to find a job?
Yes. The 无码专区 Skills and Employability Service offers support to students searching for employment during and after they study.
International students may have restrictions on the number of hours they can work:
- EEA Nationals are free to work unrestricted hours in the United Kingdom without having to obtain permission to work.
- Non-EEA Nationals will normally receive a stamp in their passport restricting the amount of hours they are entitled to work and the type of work they can take.
For more information, see Work and Volunteering on our web pages.
If you are unsure as to whether you are entitled to work in the UK you are advised to contact the International Student Support Office once you have arrived in Bangor.
