The University of Southern California has a long history of attracting outstanding talent from around the globe in diverse fields, going back to our inception in 1880.  It is our hope that FSVS can make the transition to working and living in the United States as smooth as possible for you and any family members that may accompany you.

I am a USC student who is about to graduate. Can FSVS help me get a work visa?

Only your future employer can help you obtain a work visa. If you are about to graduate, we strongly recommend that you apply for Optional Practical Training. The Office of International Services (OIS) has information about how and when to apply. Learn more »

If you will be working at USC after graduating, we will be happy to work with your hiring department.  Please have them contact FSVS.
