Tourism Minister Stuart Nash has suggested moving the university year by six weeks so students are available to work during the main tourism season.
Union of Students' Associations Andrew Lessells says many students would welcome the move.
But he says it won't be as simple as just changing dates around.
He says there's issues such as the heat students will face while doing exams in the middle of summer.
