Hello!
Generally, a student would be visiting the foreign university on a Study Visa in case of credit
transfer. A student usually is allowed to work for 20 hours in a week during teaching period in
majority of the countries (except Switzerland). During the non-teaching period, the working hours can
get increased up to 40 hours per week. Otherwise, we need to consider the laws for students part time
jobs vary from country to country. In case you got study visa, then part time job opportunities are available. As you may be already aware, it is not legal for you to do part time jobs outside of University, except internships. You face the prospect of being deported back to your country. Lot of oncampus jobs you can do. Teaching assistance, and Research assistance are quite popular but difficult to get. There are lot of other jobs like library assistants, student patrol helping University police, restaurant jobs etc. You are allowed to work for maximum of 20 hours per week, and on an average you may get from $8 to 12 per hour. During semester holidays, they may not be available. By and large, thus should take care of your living expenses, Finding a part-time job while studying abroad is an invaluable way of digging into the local culture and earning some much-needed money. There are a number of creative ways to find jobs while studying abroad. Few of the options are :
1. Find freelance jobs
2. Look For Promotional And On-Campus Jobs
3. Tutor Other Students

Hello!
Under credit transfer opportunity, student can study part of the programme (generally two years in case
of Undergraduate programme or 1 year in case of Masters programme) at LPU and complete the rest

combinations of concerned university. But university may ask you do study some additional courses (either in LPU or after going abroad). For Example: A candidate wishes to go abroad for any
computer application programme but has not studied mathematics course in his previous qualification. In this case, depending upon the requirements of foreign university, the student may have to clear
mathematics as an extra course at LPU or may be as an extra course at the foreign partner university. Sometimes, it may also happen that in case of such issues, student may have to spend extra academic
time for fulfilling the degree requirements beyond the general tenure of degree. For more details you can connect to LPU admission counselors. I hope this helps. All the Best!
