Possible to work on a cruise and be an online student at the same time?

I’m thinking of applying for an entry-level job on deck. It seems like an interesting kind of field to me that would allow those to work under certain contracts. I’m in an online program for a master and currently on a break at the moment.

I wasn’t so sure if some ship jobs out there, that I would like to apply, are willing to accept applicants or new incomers with current background as students. Even as an online one. I’ve heard how this option could become time consuming to try juggling both, or would depend on the ship. Whether if work vs school life could become more hectic on-board than on land.

I’ve contacted, and tried reaching out to, several cruise lines and corp. regarding my small concerns before I begin the application. But most representatives either wouldn’t have a specific answer for my scenario, can’t be reached, or just suggest for me to submit the application anyways and then wait to hear for a follow-up to proceed asking that question again.

What do you think about this scenario? Should I proceed to submit the applications and wait to hear for a follow-up to learn more about that scenario anyways?
