American University
American University made 14 filings covering 14 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $97,032 a year. 9 of those 14 state a minimum and no maximum, which is what an employer is required to file — it is the floor it is bound to, not a salary offered.
Green-card sponsorship
American University filed 3 permanent labour certifications between 2026-06-18 and 2026-06-26, of which 3 were certified. That is the step an employment-based green card starts with, so this employer does sponsor them.

A wage is shown against the prevailing wage for the library year the filing itself cites, not the year current today — measured against the wrong year, a correctly-filed wage reads as underpaid.
Where these workers are placed
Filings that name a secondary entity — a client site the worker works at rather than the employer's own premises.
