Looking to work this summer?

All off-campus employment requires work authorization and must be related to your field of study. Working off-campus is a serious violation of the F-1/ J-1 student status. 

F-1 current students- If you are returning to Notre Dame in fall 2026 and have an off-campus summer internship or training opportunity, you will need prior work authorization. Review our CPT website for eligibility and timelines.

F-1 graduating students - All employment after the program end date on your I-20 requires authorization, even if you are working at Notre Dame. Review the Post-Completion OPT website if you plan on applying for OPT Work Authorization. 

ALL J-1 students - Students need work authorization for all ON and OFF-Campus employment including fellowships and scholarships. Review our Academic Training website for more details on how to access off-campus opportunities.

Dear Notre Dame is a campus-wide storytelling initiative designed to break the silence surrounding mental health. Rooted in the belief that "talking about mental health changes lives," this project provides a structured, supportive platform for students, alumni, and faculty to share their setbacks, experiences, and wisdom. Through letters and high-quality video storytelling—paired with expert guidance and resources—we aim to foster a culture of vulnerability and healing. Share your story! 

Simply write a letter to the university sharing YOUR story. Whether it involves faith, family, friendship, growth, grief, or hardship—if it matters to you, it belongs here. Our goal is to show every member of our community that you are not alone. Submit your story here
