This study examines the influence of student employment on the persistence of first-year undergraduate students in postsecondary education. Using a mixed-methods approach, I explore the experiences and perspectives of employed first-year students at the University of Toronto through semi-structured interviews with nine full-time employed first-year students and a follow-up survey capturing both qualitative and quantitative information at the conclusion of their first year. I used deductive and inductive thematic data analysis to identify key themes and patterns related to employment, academic performance, institutional belonging, time management, and engagement. This study reveals that participants persisted towards their second year, but each reported unique experiences balancing work and school. The findings highlight the importance of considering students' lived experiences balancing work and school within the broader context of their educational journey to inform institutional policies and practices aimed at enhancing the overall academic experience and rates of persistence for undergraduate students.
