Important Note: 

International student employees can work up to 20 hours per week. Please review the consequences provided by the federal government for international students that exceed their 20 hours per week work limitation: 
"If you work more than 20 hours per week when school is in session, you will lose your lawful F-1 student status which will result in the termination of your SEVIS I-20 record. This means that you will need to depart from the U.S. and attempt to make a new lawful entry.

Working over the 20 hour per week limit may also jeopardize your eligibility for any future benefits from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), such as "practical training," "academic training" and/or adjustment to another non-immigrant status."
