J-1 Student Employment
J-1 students may accept employment under certain circumstances. In all cases, your J-1 program sponsor must authorize your employment. If you are uncertain about who your J-1 program sponsor is, refer to Item 2 on your DS-2019.
If you have questions or would like to determine your eligibility for J-1 employment, please contact Mrs. Enola French for assistance.
If you are sponsored by an outside agency, please consult with your program officer regarding employment eligibility.
On-Campus Employment
As a J-1 visa student, you may work on-campus up to 20 hours per week during the academic year, and full-time during school vacation periods. This includes any job for which TTU will pay you, either on an hourly basis or as a part of a graduate assistantship. Please note that your on-campus employment must stop once you complete your studies.
