No, repaying your entire education loan through part-time jobs while studying abroad is unlikely. Part-time work can help cover daily expenses, but the typical student income - such as working up to 20 hours/week in the UK - is usually not enough to make significant loan repayments.

Part-time jobs can reduce financial stress, but you will likely need to rely on additional sources or repayment plans after graduation to fully clear your loan. For tailored strategies or to discuss flexible repayment options, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
