Mississippi State University

Mississippi State University made 54 filings covering 54 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $70,000 a year. 54 of those 54 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

Mississippi State University filed 6 permanent labour certifications between 2026-01-30 and 2026-06-16, of which 6 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.
