1.2. Financial Aid

1.2.5. Can I work while I study in the United States ?

It is not easy for a foreign student to get a job, specially at the undergraduate level. Therefore you cannot rely on employment as a way of paying for your studies. By law, you can only work within the university campus: working off-campus is illegal and can lead to deportation. On-campus employment is limited to 20 hours per week, generally at the minimum wage which is currently $ 5.15 per hour. This could mean enough income to cover the cost of books, clothes, and personal expenses. These jobs are usually obtained through the International Student Office of each university.
