就业及实习

The F-1 student visa is designed to allow students to engage in a full course of study. 因此, employment opportunities while in F-1 status are limited. Please see below for information on the different types of employment and internship opportunities available, 请与您的 国际学生顾问 欲索取更多资料.

校园就业

校园就业 is work that you have been hired for by 好的赌博软件推荐 or by a third party that provides services on-campus (e.g. 餐饮服务). F-1 students may work up to 20 hours per week while school is in session and 40 hours per week during vacation periods. 学生可以同时做多份工作, but the total cannot exceed 20 hours per week while school is in session. It is the student’s responsibility to work with their supervisor to ensure they do not exceed 20 hours per week.

On-campus jobs can be found by inquiring in the department in which you’d like to work, and also on 握手 - SPU的招聘网站.

课程实践训练

课程实践训练 (CPT) is employment authorization for employment that is an integral part of your program of study. CPT is authorized for required internships, required training, and credited internships. It is not work permission for regular, long-term employment. The internship/practicum must have an academic objective.

符合CPT的资格, you must have maintained F-1 status for at least one academic year (an exception exists for graduate students whose programs require an internship in the first year). The training must either be required to complete your degree or must receive credit. CPT must be authorized by ISS before you begin working. CPT请求可以使用 申请表. CPT requests can take up to ten days to process, so it is important to plan ahead. Requests made at the last minute could result in a delay of your internship start date. Please contact your ISS advisor for additional information about CPT.

可选的实践培训

可选的实践培训 (OPT) is employment authorization for employment opportunities that are directly related to your field of study. 你不需要获得学分. OPT可以在你的学术课程中使用, but the time used is deducted from the total amount of OPT available to you after graduation, 也就是12个月. Students in approved STEM fields can apply for an additional two-year STEM extension after the initial OPT period. STEM extensions are based on the CIP code listed on your I-20 under program information. 看到 符合条件的代码.

Applications for OPT must be submitted first to ISS and then to the USCIS for approval. 因此, it is imperative to apply early (up to 90 days prior to graduation), as students cannot begin work until their application is approved, and they have received their work authorization card.

社会安全号码

A 社会安全号码 (SSN) is an identification number that is used primarily for the reporting of wages (income) for people who are authorized to work and for determining eligibility for social security benefits. If you are working on campus, then you will need to apply for a SSN.

1. Request an employment verification letter from your employer. 这封信必须 
*显示你的开始日期 
说明你每周将工作多少小时 
*给出招聘部门的名称 
由雇用你的人签名 
电子邮件 this letter to your 国际学生顾问. Your advisor will then write a required letter of support for your SSN application.

其他工作场景

There are other, more specialized, types of work authorization available to certain F-1 students. These include severe economic hardship and internship with an international organization. 与你的 国际学生顾问 了解更多信息.

Volunteering is allowed as an F-1 student, so long as the volunteer opportunity is truly voluntary. This means that anyone who accepts the position is considered a volunteer, and there is absolutely no compensation (no stipend or remuneration of any kind). Do not “volunteer” for a position that is typically paid. 你不仅会违反你的F-1身份, your employer will violate labor laws by not compensating you for a job that is traditionally paid.
