International Applicants

Visa Programs

Waterville Valley is no longer accepting H2B applicants.

International Applicants: For temporary work in the United States, the most popular visa secured by students is a "cultural exchange" Visa (J-1) that permits them to work for a period of 4 months, and allows for 1 month of travel on the end (total of 5 months). Waterville Valley is interested in applicants that are available to work full-time during our winter ski season, usually from late December through early April. In order to be eligible for a J-1 Visa you must currently be a student between the ages of 19 and 30, and must be a full-time student for at least one semester of the same year that you are applying for, or have deferred status. This type of visa must be secured via a third party, sponsoring body, i.e., Camp Counselors USA, Work USA (IEP/BUNAC) & Universal Student Exchange (USE) . These agencies typically charge a fee for their services. You should contact these agencies directly if you wish to obtain a J-1 visa.
