J-1 Employment

On-Campus Employment

As an J-1 student, you may be eligible to work on-campus as soon as you begin your academic program at NYU provided that certain criteria are met.

Off-Campus Employment

As a J-1 student interested in off-campus employment, you may be eligible for Academic Training or Economic Need Employment.

Please note that the information on these pages applies to J-1 students who are issued a DS-2019 by NYU and are enrolled in a degree program at NYU or are attending NYU as "exchange students."

The OGS is able to help NYU students sponsored by other organizations identify who is the appropriate person at that organization to provide immigration guidance.
