Employment in the U.S.

While international students on F-1 visas and exchange visitors on J-1 visas are required to show proof of sufficient funding for the duration of study, many work after their arrival in the United States to cover some of their expenses.

Before seeking any type of employment, F-1 and J-1 visa holders need to apply for a social security number and a work permit. J-1 visa holders also need to obtain permission from the responsible officer of their sponsoring agency.

The links below provide information on employment for international students.

The International Student Services (ISS) assists international students in obtaining employment eligibility and holds mandatory information workshops on off-campus employment. For more information, contact the ISS.
