What is BUNAC?
US students need work permits to take employment (paid or unpaid) in Britain. The employer has the difficult task of justifying the employment of a foreigner, and they must demonstrate that the student has more skills than resident applicants. This is where BUNAC (the British Universities North America Club) steps in. They issue a Student Employment Exchange Program Blue Card, which relieves companies of the burden. The program is fully approved by the British Government as a reciprocal exchange. The Blue Card is available to all US citizens ages 18 and upwards, who are full-time students in the USA. The main office of BUNAC is in central London, and provides program participants with leads on accommodations and employment, but it is up to each participant to find their own place to live and work.
