Post-study work rights (general guidance)

Work permit eligibility after completing an online programme depends on the country where you live and where you are legally permitted to work. An online degree may not automatically provide a residence status that allows employment in the same way as an in-country, full-time study visa.

What to check

  • Whether your current visa/residence status (if any) allows you to work while or after your studies.
  • Whether the programme completion qualifies you for any post-study residence or work authorisation in your country of residence.
  • Any requirements related to graduate employment, job offer conditions, or minimum study duration.

Next steps

  • Review the official immigration guidance for your country (or the country where you plan to work).
  • Contact the university’s international office for advice on how online study affects your specific visa situation.

Note: Rules vary by jurisdiction and can change. Always verify the most current information with the relevant immigration authority.
