While Indira Gandhi didn't pursue her studies at the Oxford Law School, she did pursue a course in Modern History in 1937 at the Somerville College that falls under the educational umbrella of Oxford.

However, she couldn't complete her studies due to some health issues & had to leave after a duration of one-year.

Yes, students pursuing their studies at an Oxford based institution can work alongside their studies, however there is a limit on working hours allowed per week.

International students are allowed to work 20 hours a week (4 hours a day, on average), but must not exceed that number in any given week even if they work lesser hours during a different week, to avoid getting into trouble with the relevant authorities which can lead to financial penalties or in some cases, revocation of the student visa.

Oxford students enrolled in full-time UG studies spend on average 40 hours a week studying.

Studies at Oxford can be very hectic as per student reviews curated from Shiksha Study Abroad & students are advised to manage their time in a way that allows them to fit in their personal hobbies & interests over the week.
