Employment of Exchange Students
On-campus Employment
Students may be considered for part-time employment on campus only with written permission of the Assistant Dean for Study Abroad (or with written permission of ISEP for those under their visa program). Employment is limited to 20 hours per week on campus and must be arranged through the Student Employment Office.
Post Program Academic Training
Students may request to work in their field of study off campus after they complete their exchange. Normally, an exchange student may be approved for 4 months of “academic training” if they attended one semester, and up to 9 months if they attended two semesters.
Advisory: If you want to consider the on-campus or off-campus employment options, contact the office early so the documents needed to be prepared to give permission are done on time. Students approved for work will also need to obtain a U.S. Social Security ID Card before they can begin their employment, and this application can take two or more weeks.
