There are various programs available for F-1 students to seek off-campus employment, after the first academic year. F-1 students may engage in three types of off-campus employment, after they have been studying for one academic year. These three types of employment are:
CURRICULAR PRACTICAL TRAINING (CPT)
OPTIONAL PRACTICAL TRAINING (OPT) (PRE-COMPLETION OR POST-COMPLETION)
SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS (STEM) OPTIONAL PRACTICAL TRAINING EXTENSION (OPT)
M-1 students may engage in practical training only after they have completed their studies.
For both F-1 and M-1 students any off-campus employment must be related to their area of study and must be authorized prior to starting any work by the Designated School Official (the person authorized to maintain the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS)) and USCIS.
