Participant Eligibility
All participants on the Work & Travel USA program are university students with strong English skills who are authorized to accept employment in the United States for up to 4 months during the period coinciding with the summer vacation in their home country.
Seasons Served
The US summer season sees primarily European students arriving and staying for up to 4 months between mid-May to mid-October. A smaller number of students from countries such as Taiwan, Malaysia, Colombia and Ecuador also participate.
The US winter season welcomes South Americans, Australians and South Africans who generally arrive between mid-November and early January, staying for up to four months.
During the spring, students from Thailand and Singapore also arrive to participate on the program.
Upon expiration of their 4-month visa, students are granted a 30-day travel period by the U.S. government. Although they are no longer authorized to work, this period allows them to further explore the U.S. before they return home to resume their studies.
