    I can't speak for all universities but the one I work for specifies a maximum 20 hours a week of paid employment for a full time student during term time and even that would not be possible with some courses. However term is only 30 weeks of the year leaving quite a bit of vacation time in which to earn more.
    I think that mine does not allow students to work at all in term time, which is understandable. The loans are supposed to cover living expenses, and the long holidays allow people to save up some extra.
