You do have the option of going to school part-time in the US, and there is a real effort to accommodate students' schedules with multiple sections of a class or lab; plus, some sections will be exclusively online. But this is not only to accommodate working students--it's also to accommodate conflicts between lectures so that students can finish in four years. "Full-time" in the US is 12 to 18 (sometimes more) contact hours a week, not 8 to 10. Also, if you're in a science curriculum, there will be weekly labs that last 3 hours, but for which you only receive one credit--so the number of credits you're taking won't always reflect your contact hours. The rule of thumb is that you should do at least two hours of study outside class for every contact hour you have--but with lab reports and practicals, field trips, research papers, etc., you could end up doing a lot more. And students in the design fields practically live in their studios and pull more all-nighters than anyone but the engineers.
