This training is designed for students travelling to the United States for study. It will help you understand what the US expects from you as an international student and what you should expect from life and study in the United States.
By the end of this training, you should understand:

In the United States, F-1 students are generally limited to 20 hours a week while school is in session for permitted work. Standard post-completion OPT is generally 12 months, eligible STEM graduates may receive a 24-month extension, and F-1 students usually have a 60-day grace period after completion or after post-completion OPT ends.
