You can work during the school year for a maximum of 20 hours. And in the Spring/Summer semesters you can work full time. As long as the work you do specifically benefits the uofm community. So for example, you can work at the Starbucks in Michigan Union, but not the one on State Street. You can always try interning at a Canadian/British company. The pay(11$) at dining halls is among the best if you don’t have any prior experience you can apply towards an office job.

So you can basically earn 220$ a week while in school. So basically the maximum you can earn while studying in school and working at the dining at 11$ an hour is
(16+16)1120 School year + (402011)

Basically comes out to 15000. That is a significant dent in the 57k a year with housing. The tuition without that is ~44000. So taking out 550/month rent at a decent place. Your yearly off campus housing comes to 550*12 = 6600. You get 1 free meal for every shift you work so, it comes out to 50k/year with 6 meals a week(assuming you work 1 shift every day). Total after working is 35k/ year and that is the least you have to spend to live in Ann Arbor for a year, study full time at the uofm; while working part time while school is in session, and full time when it’s not//

Hope this is satisfactory.
