University of PennsylvaniaEmployers That Filed Green-Card Applications for Its Graduates
Which employers filed the most green-card applications for University of Pennsylvania graduates?
Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and BCG. U.S. Department of Labor PERM records list 1,646 green-card applications filed by employers between FY2020 and FY2024 for workers who hold a degree from University of Pennsylvania, at a median wage of $132k on those filings. Each is an application, not a person and not a hire; 5.3% were denied or withdrawn.
Employers filed these applications for people who studied here; the school is not a party to them. H-1B filings do not record the worker's school, so this is green-card (PERM) data. Why
