VISA & Work Study
VISA
- The F-1 or J-1 visa stamp in their passport is permission to apply to enter the United States in that visa category. Students enter the U.S. under the terms and conditions specified by the particular type of nonimmigrant visa that they hold.
- The J-1 visa is granted to participants of the J-1 Exchange Visitor Program and is the most common visa for Visiting Scholars at NC State. However, other visa options can be applied to specific situations. Explore this page to determine which visa option would work best for their prospective researcher.
Work Study
Federal Work-Study (FWS) is a federally-funded, need-based employment program. Eligible undergraduate students may earn FWS funds by working part-time with approved FWS employers. Students are awarded FWS based on financial need, availability of FWS funds, and job availability. Employing departments, and the state and federal governments share in the payment of student wages.
Career and Placement after Course
Employment – whether it is part of a graduate assistantship, or a co-operative internship with a company, or part-time employment on campus just to make a little money, can be a very useful activity, a great way to meet Americans, and help meet daily expenses. OIS advisors are very supportive of international students engaging in lawful, appropriate, and authorized employment. Certain visa types do not allow any employment whatsoever while other visa types have very generous employment benefits. Every visa type has different employment restrictions and processes. F-1 and J-1 students are able to work on-campus or off-campus provided they meet all the eligibility requirements, get written authorization when necessary, and the employer does not interfere with studies or delay program completion.
