Hiring International Students
F1 and J1 international students who have immigration documents issued by UGA
can work on the UGA campus. They do not need any special authorization or
documentation, as long as they have been maintaining status.
An F2 (dependent of an F1 student) cannot work or study while
in the U.S. The J2 (dependent of a J1) can work if they have
an EAD authorizing them to do so. They can, however, enroll in
classes while in a J2 visa status.
If an F1 violates his or her status and is waiting for reinstatement from the
USCIS, he or she can continue to take classes but is not allowed to work until
he or she is approved for reinstatement to legal student status.
An F1 or J1 from another school can work at UGA with authorization from
immigration in the form of CPT or OPT as an
F1 or Academic Training as a J1.
