We're creating a series of videos with international students sharing their opinions on various topics. The purpose of this activity is to highlight students' opinions, experiences, and perspectives on topics relevant to current and prospective international students. The upcoming filming will cover questions related to exploring identity and understanding racism and xenophobia as international students. Lunch will be provided on the day of filming. 

Please fill out the participation interest form if you'd like to be in our next group filming session scheduled for June 2023.

This workshop is designed to give you a firm understanding of what OPT is (it's a form of work authorization for students in F-1 status), how to apply for OPT, the processing timeline, what documents you’ll need, travel advice, and reporting requirements.

Learn about the process to get or renew a US student visa, what to expect for the day of your visa interview, possible outcomes of your student visa application, and resources to turn to if your application is delayed or denied.

For F-1 international students who are already on post-OPT, you probably already know if you’re eligible for the STEM OPT extension. This is an additional 24 months of OPT work authorization for students with a US degree in certain majors of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. We highly recommend attending this webinar about 4 months before your current OPT EAD card is set to expire. During this webinar, we will review eligibility for the extension, the application process, reporting responsibilities, travel, and how Cap Gap extension often overlaps with the STEM extension.
