How many hours a week should my son/daughter work starting out in college?
Typically new students should limit themselves to no more than 25 hours a week. This also depends on the student, class load and other extracurricular activities in which they participate, and if they are available during the weekends. As students further their education most often work close to 40 hours a week.
