Optional Practical Training for F-1 Students (Pre OPT and Post OPT)

September 29 4:00pm - 5:30pm

Optional Practical Training is one way to do both!

Learn about how to apply and the documents needed to ensure you’re able to work when you land that job, too. Seating is limited. The RSVP is only for reminder purposes.
