What is On-Campus Employment?
On-campus employment refers to any job you perform on campus where you are paid by
Vincennes University. On-campus employment is a great opportunity for international
students. Not only is it a way of earning extra money while going to school, but it
is also way to get involved and interact with the campus community.
You will not be eligible for work-study positions because they are part of a federally
funded program.
Steps to Becoming Employed On-Campus
- Find an on-campus job
- Complete the Employer Authorization Form
- Complete the Application for a Social Security Card
- Prepare Required Documents
- Pick up Work Authorization Letter from International Student Affairs
- Go to the Social Security Administration Office
How do I get authorization to work on campus?
Once you have been offered an on-campus job, print out the Employer Authorization Form, which needs to be filled out by the hiring supervisor. When complete, return the
Employer Authorization Form to International Student Affairs.
Within 1-3 business days, you will receive an email instructing you to come pick up
your work authorization letter from the Office of International Student Affairs.
What are the rules to legally work on campus?
As an F-1 student, you must meet certain conditions so that you can maintain your
status and be employed legally. You must:
- Enroll as a full-time student
-
Work no more than 20 hours per week during the fall and spring semesters
-
Work no more than 28 hours per week during official university breaks (summer break,
winter break, and spring break)
If you have multiple on campus jobs, please make sure that all of your employers know
about all of your jobs. (This is tied to employee benefits under the Affordable Care
Act, and 澳门足球博彩官方网址 is required to monitor the hours worked per week. This is a federal requirement
for all temporary positions, for all employees – not just international students.)
* Hours cannot be averaged over a period of time.
