    Resources for Employers

    Hiring international students is easy and not much different than hiring domestic students

    Curricular Practical Training: Students on an F-1 visa who have completed at least one full academic year at their institution qualify for Curricular Practical Training (CPT). CPT employment is a paid internship that is directly related to the student's major field of study and provides training that will allow the student to apply concepts learned in their degree program in a practical setting. (GPA and degree program requirement)

    Optional Practical Training: Students on an F-1 visa who have completed at least one full academic year at their institution also qualify for Optional Practical Training (OPT). OPT employment is a job that provides relevant work experience in the student's major field of study and reinforces what they may have learned in their degree program. (GPA and degree program requirement)

    For additional assistance or questions regarding hiring international students, please contact our International Student and Scholar Services office.
