What are the possibilities for employment after graduation?
A liberal arts degree can be your passport for either advanced study or professional employment in a wide range of professions. International graduates holding an F-1 student visa are eligible to apply for a year of employment in the U.S. under USCIS guidelines for “optional practical training” (OPT). Applications for OPT must be processed through the Office of International Students. The Office of Career Services provides a wide range of services and contacts regarding employment, including internships, for both current Oberlin students and recent graduates. A network of Oberlin alumni may also be helpful in finding employment. Most international students take the opportunityto work in the U.S. for one or more years after completing their degree.
