Student Employment

During the academic year, ECLA students are eligible for both on-campus and off-campus employment. The College's policy allows for a maximum of six hours of work per week when classes are in session. ECLA’s financial aid programme is designed in such a way as to avoid student reliance on employment as a necessity for tuition, room and board expenses. However, ECLA recognizes that a part-time earning activity through on- or off- campus student jobs may contribute importantly to the quality of student life off Campus.  

ECLA offers opportunities for student employment throughout all academic programmes. During the International Summer University, opportunities for employment are more limited and depend on students' eligibility for work in Germany under their Summer visas. Hiring for student jobs takes place via an open advertisement and selection process. ECLA cannot guarantee the availability of student employment based on financial need.
