H-1B sponsorship profile: University of Alaska. Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, University of Alaska filed 94 Labor Condition Applications covering 94 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2026. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 98.9% (93 certified of 94 filed), a useful proxy for how cleanly their prevailing-wage attestations pass the Labor Department’s preliminary review before USCIS adjudication.

Compensation spread. Offered wages on University of Alaska’s H-1B petitions range from $53,539 at the low end to $337,051 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $94,205. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Post Doctoral Fellow (38 petitions at $67,057 avg), followed by Assistant Professor and Research Assistant Professor. H-1B salaries reported on LCAs must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the role and worksite, so the spread also tracks wage-level geography and seniority.

Geographic footprint. University of Alaska is headquartered in Fairbanks, AK under NAICS code 611310, and places H-1B workers across 7 states, most heavily in AK, TN, NM. Combined, these signals give a granular view of how one employer uses the H-1B program, volume, approval cleanliness, wage posture, and where the jobs actually sit on the map.

Where University of Alaska ranks. By H-1B petition volume, University of Alaska is #2,419 of 119,880 employers nationally and #2 of 122 employers headquartered in AK. The gap between the two is the point: a mid-size national sponsor can still be a top-10 name in its own state's H-1B market.
