In my experience it varies depending on flying school policy as much as anything. Some FIs think that the student needs enough training to be able to cope with a diversion to another field, some think it's OK as long as the student has the physical skills to safely do one circuit and land.
Also depends on the weather - some are ready for 1st solo and don't get to do it until much later in the course.
There was a massive thread about this, but it tends to degenerate into a bragging match about the least number of hours and whether that makes you a better pilot.
