On-Campus Employment

If you are maintaining your full-time student status, you may take a part-time job on campus for 20 hours or less per a week while school is in session (fall and spring semesters) as long as it does not interfere with maintaining full-time enrollment.  International students may work full-time on-campus while school is not in session (summer vacation). Please contact the International Student Services (ISS) office for assistance and permission.
