Indiana’s most prestigious private university is seeking an immigrant to teach English.

The University of Notre Dame wants one H1-B or E-3 holder from August 2026 to August 2029, according to a notice on its website first reported by The College Fix. The notice offers a $87,457 salary for the role and classifies it under the “English Language and Literature Teachers” job category from the Department of Labor (DOL). The salary is just above the DOL’s $87,090 mean annual wage for the teacher category.

A spokesperson for Notre Dame declined to comment on the record. The Catholic school is Indiana’s top-rated private university in U.S. News and World Report.

President Donald Trump’s officials have implemented executive reforms curtailing the H1-B program. The U.S. government imposed a $100,000 fee on employers in September for every H1-B worker they sponsor and changed the worker selection process in December from a random lottery to skills-based evaluations. A rule the DOL proposed in March would also increase required minimum salaries for H1-B workers “to better align … with the wages paid to U.S. workers who are similarly employed in the occupation and area of intended employment.”

“The H-1B nonimmigrant visa program was created to bring temporary workers into the United States to perform additive, high-skilled functions, but it has been deliberately exploited to replace, rather than supplement, American workers with lower-paid, lower-skilled labor,” Trump said in September. “The large-scale replacement of American workers through systemic abuse of the program has undermined both our economic and national security.”

The Trump administration approved about 97% of H1-B applications in 2025 as restrictions did not take effect until late in the year, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
