Can I work on campus?

International Students

If you are a registered, full-time international student with a study permit, you are able to work at any job on campus without having a work permit. However, you must have a valid study permit that lists a condition that says you're allowed to work on- or off-campus. To see if you qualify check Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) guidelines for work permits for students.

To work on campus, you must:

• Have a valid study permit
• Be registered full-time in a certificate, diploma, or degree-granting program
• Have a valid Social Insurance Number (SIN)

You must stop working on campus on the day you are no longer studying full-time or when your study permit expires.

Please note you need a Social Insurance Number (SIN) from Service Canada to work in Canada or to receive benefits and services from government programs.
