Stanislaus State is not currently sponsoring faculty for H-1B work status if they are subject to the $100,000 fee established under the Presidential Proclamation: Restriction on Entry of Certain Nonimmigrant Workers issued on September 19, 2025. For faculty already in the United States who hold a valid nonimmigrant visa (such as F-1, J-1, or O-1), Stanislaus State is able to consider filing a petition to change their status to H-1B based on the current determination that the fee does not apply. For questions, please contact the Office of Faculty Affairs at facultyaffairs@csustan.edu. We strongly recommend that faculty review their individual circumstances carefully with their personal immigration legal counsel.
Please note that the CSU does not use automated decision systems or artificial intelligence tools in making hiring or selection decisions. All applicant evaluations and employment decisions are made by human reviewers, using structured candidate responses and job-related criteria to ensure fairness, consistency, and compliance with FEHA.
