yes it is possible. Foreigners usually stick either to their field , or teach in foreign schools. altho i dont recommend you to live and stay alone in Egypt , it is possible . It is quite safe , but not 100% safe . and better be safe than sorry. try to have someone (talking male) living with you here in Egypt. Good luck. John

The best thing you can do is to contact the American embassy in Cairo. A large number of Americans including marines work and live in Egypt.

Yes it is absolutely possible for an American woman to live and work in Egypt. You should do a lot of research on the school you'll be attending, learn about their customs and traditions. Don't go to places you are not familiar with. As with any foreign country, there is always danger. Egypt is a Muslim country. Be prepared to dress like the women there out of respect for them. If you are going to be with other American women then things should be okay. Just remember, when you dress do not dress like college girls in the US. They are very strict when it comes to a woman "showing" her body. Contact the American Embassy for more information. Good luck, have fun and above all see the sites! Egypt is a country full of history. Also, it gets quite hot and humid there. It can be 115 degrees F in the shade during the summer months (remember about how you dress with regards to the temperature). As far as employment, it depends what you are studying. The school or even the embassy could direct you. Many Americans work in Egypt for US countries and have no problems. Hope this helps. Good luck and have fun. What an experience you are going to have. It is a beautiful country.

it is possible for you to live in Egypt independently . Egypt is perfectly safe for you . try to find good accommodation close to the school you would study . this would save time and money . Heliopolis or Maadi where many foreigners live . try to mix , go out to famous places , see and enjoy the sites .

I doubt that very much as a student you are not allowed to work if you managed to have a work permit I do not think money will be enough to support you http://palestinecause.com/
