Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Nursing Jobs at University of Colorado Jobs
Verify your nursing credentials before applying
Most University of Colorado nursing roles require a NCLEX-RN pass and Colorado state licensure. If your nursing degree is from outside the U.S., get a credential evaluation through a NACES-approved body before submitting any application.
Target roles tied to academic medical units
University of Colorado's hospital and clinical teaching units tend to have stronger sponsorship infrastructure than standalone clinic postings. Filtering for roles attached to CU Anschutz Medical Campus increases your odds of landing with a team familiar with immigration filings.
Search open nursing roles on Migrate Mate
Migrate Mate surfaces University of Colorado nursing postings filtered by visa sponsorship type, so you can quickly identify which roles are actively open to H-1B or TN candidates rather than manually screening dozens of listings.
Understand the TN visa path for Canadian and Mexican nurses
Registered Nurse is an approved TN profession under the USMCA. If you hold Canadian or Mexican citizenship, TN status can be arranged faster than H-1B and does not require PERM labor certification, which simplifies the employer's process considerably.
Ask about sponsorship intent during the offer stage
University of Colorado routes visa filings through its central HR and international office, not individual hiring managers. Once you receive an offer, ask specifically which office manages H-1B or Green Card petitions and what their standard timeline looks like before you sign.
Plan around H-1B cap timing if you are on OPT
If you are currently on F-1 OPT, USCIS only accepts H-1B registrations in March for an October 1 start. Coordinate your application timeline with University of Colorado's HR so your offer letter and registration window align before your OPT expiration date.

Find Nursing at University of Colorado JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does University of Colorado sponsor H-1B visas for Nursings?
Yes, University of Colorado sponsors H-1B visas for qualifying nursing roles, particularly those tied to its academic medical system. Sponsorship is handled through the university's central international affairs office rather than individual departments. Not every posted nursing role will come with sponsorship, so confirming eligibility with HR during the offer stage is the right move.
How do I apply for Nursing jobs at University of Colorado?
Applications go through the University of Colorado's careers portal, where nursing roles are listed by campus and unit. Before applying, confirm you hold a valid RN license in Colorado or are eligible for endorsement. You can also browse University of Colorado nursing openings filtered by visa type on Migrate Mate, which saves time if sponsorship is a requirement for your search.
Which visa types are commonly used for Nursing roles at University of Colorado?
University of Colorado nursing hires have used H-1B, TN, J-1, and F-1 OPT, as well as employment-based Green Card pathways including EB-2 and EB-3. TN is common for Canadian and Mexican RNs due to its straightforward process. EB-3 is the typical Green Card route for nurses, though it involves PERM labor certification and a longer timeline depending on your country of birth.
What qualifications and experience are expected for Nursing roles at University of Colorado?
Most roles require a current RN license, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing for clinical and specialized units, and relevant acute care or specialty experience. Academic medical center roles at CU Anschutz often expect experience in high-acuity environments such as ICU, oncology, or surgical care. International candidates should also have a credential evaluation confirming their foreign degree meets U.S. standards before applying.
How long does the visa sponsorship process take for a University of Colorado nursing hire?
For H-1B, count on several months from offer to filing, with the cap registration window fixed to March and employment start dates no earlier than October 1. TN for Canadian nurses can be arranged within weeks. EB-3 Green Card sponsorship through PERM involves DOL processing that can run a year or more before the petition stage, so starting that conversation early in your employment is practical.
