Employment
opportunities for international students are limited. You should not plan on earning
substantial money from a part-time job to help pay for your studies.
On campus :
Though international students are allowed to work on campus, these jobs are often
difficult to obtain and do not provide sufficient funds to sustain education costs.
Students with good academic standing have a better chance.
Off campus : It
may be possible to for students to avail of limited off-campus employment, which is
subject to strict regulatory guidelines. It requires approval from US Immigration &
Naturalization Service. This approval is not easy to get and depends on a special need.
Practical
Training : In addition, there may be opportunities for practical training which
entail a period of authorized employment, designed to allow foreign students to have
professional work experience related to their field of study. For further details, contact
the foreign student adviser at the university, after you are enrolled.
