Do I get Christmas and New Years off? Do I get a holiday during my internship?

If you are still on campus and not on internship over this period, you usually finish up the second to last week of December (around the 18th) and will not return to study until the second week of January. Please refer to term times for more accurate dates.

If you are internship or about to start your internship however you do not normally get Christmas or New Year off as a Hospitality Student, as this is usually the busiest (and most fun) time to be working in a hotel. As a Hospitality student it will all depend on your role and your employer. In hotel you usually either work Christmas or New Years day and you would need to talk to your manager or shift coordinator about this.

Adventure Tourism students, this will depend on your role and of course whether of not your company operates on these dates.
