Study and living conditions in Swiss universities 2009 Balancing study and paid work remains the norm

Balancing study and paid work remains the norm

Neuchâtel, 23.11.2010 (FSO) - Three-quarters of university students pursue their studies concurrently with paid work, even after the Bologna reform. However, this proportion is down slightly from 2005. Ahead of paid work, relatives remain the main source of financial support for students and provide on average more than half their funding. Grants and student loans account for less than 10% of students' resources.
