Post-Study Work visa or permit, allowing international students on F-1 visas to work in the US after completing their studies, typically through Optional Practical Training (OPT).

Eligibility:
To be eligible for OPT, students must have been enrolled full-time in a US educational institution for at least one academic year and be seeking work related to their major.

Duration:
Students can apply for up to 12 months of OPT, either before they finish their studies (pre-completion) or after graduation (post-completion).

STEM OPT:
Students in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields can apply for an extended OPT period of up to 24 months.

• Academic credentials: Students are required to submit official copies of secondary school records, which include academic transcripts, results from national examinations, graduation certificates, and/or any other documentation that certifies successful completion of secondary education. To be considered official, these documents must be sent to us directly from a school official or an NACES-approved evaluation agency. Students should refer to the World Education Services Required Documents or Josef Silny & Associates, Inc. webpages for assistance in determining the required documentation for the admission process. In order for documentation to be considered official, it must be mailed or emailed directly from a secondary school or national education ministry in a sealed envelope. If documentation is not in English, provide both original and translated copies. Electronic copies cannot be accepted.
• Recommendations: A school counselor recommendation is required for admission. For schools without a counselor, a recommendation may be sent from the principal or head of school.
• Standardized tests: All students for whom English is not their native language are required to submit results from the TOEFL, IELTS, or DUOLINGO exam(s). For the TOEFL, a minimum score of 80 (Internet-based) or a minimum score of 550 (paper-based) is required. For the IELTS, a minimum score of 6.5 is required. For DUOLINGO, a minimum score of 105 is required. Students must submit official institutional score reports, NOT student score reports.
