While the InterExchange program isn't like a regular job, there are companies that would pay a good rate. Where they are, I don't know. The InterExchange program does say to pay the intern at least room and board. Since the internship is a part of the student's education, it only follows that the student pay for their educational needs. I will be suporting this program this summer. I do have one student already to come in July. While he has not asked for pay, I will have him at my home so room and board aren't a concern. I would happily pay for work done in my shop if any other students are interested. The prior posts talk of this program and what the student and employee need to do. > I think that you can get j1 VISA with working permit.
