I am on an F1 visa and I have been working all summer on campus at my university for about 40 hours per week. I am aware that i am not allowed to exceed 20 hours of work during the semester.
However, the semester starts on the 2nd of September on Thursday, and i am scheduled to work a little over 20 hours that week. Will I be penalized for working full time (8:30-5pm) on Monday -Wednesday and exceeding 20 hours that week while the semester only starts (midweek) on Thursday.
