University of Rochester

University of Rochester is a large H-1B sponsor: 105 applications in the DOL LCA dataset. Companies at this volume typically run dedicated immigration teams and recurring sponsorship cycles tied to college recruiting and senior-hire flow.

Approval profile is essentially perfect: 98% approval rate across the 105 applications on file. A near-100% approval rate over meaningful volume signals a competent immigration counsel and well-prepared filings — the company is rarely getting RFEs or denials. Average H-1B wage at University of Rochester is $110,052 — about 48% above the prevailing-wage benchmark of $74,348. A premium of this size is unusual and suggests the company competes for talent on absolute pay rather than relying on visa leverage.

The top H-1B role at University of Rochester is Glide Team Registered Nurse 2 Inpatient ($89,057) — a medical or clinical position. H-1B sponsorship for clinical roles often runs through the J-1 waiver pathway and is concentrated in underserved areas where physician supply gaps are most acute. All H-1B filings come from a single state (NY) — typical of companies with one office or a regional footprint.
