My son is at uni in the USA so obviously on a student visa but he is only allowed to work on campus in a university appointed position. If he were to do any other unapproved paid work at all his visa would be revoked.

I expect your daughter's visa would only allow her to do similar on-campus jobs and if she's only there for one semester there might not be many jobs open to her.

I'm no expert on her boyfriend's status but the US authorities are very strict and I doubt he would be allowed to work at all.

But why would she not bother applying because her boyfriend couldn't go? To give up a great opportunity for what amounts to just a few weeks apart would be madness and something she'd probably regret down the line.
