Overview
Most international students who are neither US Citizens nor Permanent Residents enroll in academic programs under one of two non-immigrant student immigration statuses, F-1 or J-1. Jessup University does not work with J-1 visa holders, so the focus of this guide will be on how to hire an F-1 student.
Jessup International Student Services Office seeks to help international students and employers both understand work authorization, and follow the necessary steps outlined in this guide to ensure the student is engaging in legal and authorized employment.
Please note this guide covers work authorization specifically for international students who are enrolled in a Masters program at Jessup University. Some of the details presented in this guide may differ from other schools who also have international students depending on internal academic policy.
