This workshop is for F-1 international students finishing their studies this spring.

Optional Practical Training (OPT) is the year of employment that you may be eligible for upon completion of studies. OPT is an off-campus employment benefit associated with F-1 international student status. The purpose of OPT is to give F-1 students the opportunity to obtain full-time work authorization for 12 months in a paid or unpaid position that is directly related to a student’s major.

The OPT workshop will provide you with a step-by-step explanation and guide you through the application process. Please note that attendance at one workshop is mandatory.

Bring your passport (with I‑94 card) and I‑20. Please arrive on time for any 1½ hour session. This information is so important that unfortunately we cannot allow latecomers.
