I don't know if that's the case here, but a lot of European colleges require summer internships. Compensation is sometimes permitted, but status of employment must be an internship.

He may be implying that he might as well work now and do college later if he feels like it.

I went this course. I started working in my current office as a high school co-op and 4-5 years later I'm still here. I might as well work now earning a good salary and go to college whenever I feel like it.

Uhh, I've never seen that to be the case and I'm from Europe.

Germany here. I know plenty of people that have done internships because their degree required it.

After or during studies, yes, but not as pre-requisite.

I'm from the US and my school required 1 year co-op experience as a pre-req for completing the degree.
