ON-CAMPUS EMPLOYMENT

FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

Information disclaimer:

The information in this section is intended only for current and prospective international students and scholars of Tarleton State University. Any information on immigration regulations is subject to change at any time and without notice and may not apply to individuals outside the TSU community.

A major role of the TSU International Office is to provide immigration information and advice as well as issue immigration documents for F-1 and J-1 international students and scholars at TSU. If you need advice or information on other immigration matters – such as H-1 or L-2 visas or status, refugee or asylum status, or U.S. permanent residence issues – please consult a board certified immigration attorney or your caseworker. The TSU International Office does not provide information or advice beyond F-1 and J-1 student and scholar matters.

All students must maintain a full course of study
and have valid documentation in order to work on campus.

On-campus employment takes place on the school’s premises, and the paycheck is issued by Tarleton State University. If you are applying for a job on campus and you learn that an entity other than Tarleton is going to pay you, please check with the International Office before accepting the job.

F-1 Students: You may work up to 20 hours per week during the fall and spring semesters. Full-time employment (21-40 hours per week) is allowed only during vacation periods for enrolled and continuing students. No special permission is necessary; however, a valid I-20 issued by Tarleton State University is required.

J-1 Students: If your DS-2019 is issued by Tarleton State University, then your ability to work on campus is the same as that of F-1 students. However, if your DS-2019 is issued by another agency then there must be written authorization from the program sponsor allowing you to work on the Tarleton campus.
