While international students are free to work on campus without any special approval, federal visa regulations stipulate that international students cannot work off campus without prior authorization. Students who work off campus without authorization may be subject to removal and cancellation of their visa status. Please make an appointment to meet with the International Student Advisor to ask any questions that you may have about employment.

Following are the employment options for international students in the United States:

• On Campus Employment for F-1/J-1 Students
• Employment, Volunteering & Unpaid Internships
• Optional Practical Training (OPT)
• Curricular Practical Training (CPT)
• Severe Economic Hardship Employment Authorization
• Employment with an International Organization
