International students may be eligible to work on or off campus depending on their visa type. The visa type will determine certain eligibility requirements and restrictions. Not all international students have employment eligibility and some are required to apply for and obtain specific employment authorization from ISSO or the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) BEFORE engaging in any employment. Some international students do not have employment eligibility and must not work. Employment regulations differ for different visa types and potential employers or supervisors must ascertain employment eligibility before initiating actions, before promising employment, and especially before allowing you to begin work. Please contact ISSO to confirm employment eligibility.
