abstract: 'We analyze the relation between student academic achievement and labor

  supply by exploiting institutional variation derived from a Swedish

  public financial aid reform which altered the relative cost of financing

  college education through taking up student loans and engaging in market

  work, respectively. Applying detailed administrative data we estimate

  relative changes in earnings and academic credits attributed to the

  intervention for students from different social backgrounds. Results

  show that the reform increased relative earnings and decreased relative

  study pace for students from a lower socioeconomic background. These

  effects appear to have been driven by students more financially

  constrained by the previous system. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights
