Compensation spread. Offered wages on University of Minnesota’s H-1B petitions range from $34,960 at the low end to $270,000 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $79,982.

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.
