Is 33hrs per week classed as part time?

Answer 1

In most businesses and industries, working 30 hours a week is considered part-time. Full time employment is 40 hours on average, although some businesses may grant full-time status to those working at least 35 hours a week.

Answer 2

For colleges and universities that operate on a regular semester system, a full-time student must take no less than 12 credits per regular semester. One credit is equivalent to 16 hours of classroom contact time for the semester. Thus, 12 credits would amount to 192 hours of class contact time for the semester. You can also say, it would be 12 hours of class contact time per week.

Answer 3

For colleges and universities that operate on a regular semester system, a full-time student must take no less then 12 credits per semester The average student load is 15. Anything less than 12 is part -time. One credit is equivalent to 16 hours of class contact time for the semester, which is typically one hour of class contact time per week for the length of the semester. Thus, the common three credit course would require 48 hours of class contact time and typically broken down into three hours of class contact time per week for the length of the semester. So, 12 credits would require 12 hours of class contact time per week for the semester, and this is considered full-time. As I stated in the above, anything less would be part-time.
