A student's academic success is Lehigh's first consideration in establishing student workload policies and making exceptions to those policies. Lehigh limits students' paid work to 20 hours per week during the semester. Thus, students' workload should average no more than 20 hours per week during an academic semester. For an exception to this policy to be considered, please use the form above. Once filled out and signed by both the student and work supervisor, please submit to the Dean of Students Office.

A liberal arts education launches careers and lives of meaning, purpose, and influence. As Lehigh’s hub for integrative, forward-looking research, the college must be ready to provide students with the resources, tools, and experiences to realize their potential as future makers.
