Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools H-1B Third-Party Placement Rate
Of 109,707 certified H-1B filings in Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools (FY2021–2026), 1.6% record the worker's actual worksite as a client site rather than the sponsoring employer's own location, the DOL disclosure field used for staffing and consulting placements.
What This Measures
DOL requires every Labor Condition Application to state whether the H-1B worker's actual worksite is the petitioning employer's own location or a client's site under a staffing or consulting arrangement. This page reports that field only, it is not a measure of job security, legitimacy, or employer quality. Third-party placement is a normal, lawful business model in IT staffing and consulting, and a low or 0% rate simply means Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools roles are more often filed for the employer's own offices rather than client engagements.
What it can tell you: whether an H-1B offer in Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools is more likely to mean working at the sponsoring employer's own office, or being placed at a separate client company's site.
