Hello, bro. As a hybrid student in an online college, can I take 12 credit hours in my final semester, consisting of 3 subjects and 1 project?
For day 1 cpt, completing 2 courses every semester is enough and compliant to regulations. However, when talking about online schools, things can get tricky, the most being an online school cannot issue F1 student visa/status. I need context on which school you're talking about.
@ Avila University
Great information ladies✨

Is the CPT Day 1 program only eligible for master's and doctoral degrees? Can I pursue an undergraduate degree and enroll in the program?
Great question. It's vastly common for Graduate programs to offer Day 1 CPT. For undergrad, programs are very limited. It also comes with certain restrictions to the program setting since students are likely just came to the US. Consult with us here: goelite.com/youtube/goelite-free-consultation
Curricular Practical Training
when do i need to contact my employer regarding day 1 cpt intention? is it before applying to day 1 cpt schools or after getting admission? Do i need any forms signed from the employer before accepting day 1 cpt admission?
Nothing needs to be signed by your employer when you're accepting the admission. But, when you apply for the CPT, most of the school will require your employer to sign some sort of a CPT agreement. The sooner you explain CPT to your HR or manager, the better
Can you apply to these schools outside the usa? If yes , can you tell us how
YES! It's easy and straight forward, some of the universities would still have the option for you to start CPT from the beginning. Connect with us: goelite.com/youtube/goelite-free-consultation
Thanks for the infos super helpful
145 ? In the USCIS pages says it’s 800, that’s what a paid. When I got the recipient latter also stated the 800 USD
The fee for a motion to reopen or reconsider with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is $145. The fee must be paid in advance to the Department of Homeland Security and the receipt must be submitted with the motion. We might be referring to different type to fees
The I-290B fee is 800 USD it’s on USCIS fee page. I just paid my motion like week ago and my recipient letter says 800 also
Hi ,can you please tell me in miami florida location how the hybrid class works for bba ( undergraduate) programm Thank you

Hi, Can you please make a video on preparing for an F-1 visa renewal interview during Day 1CPT and what documents I should carry for the interview?
Great idea! Like this comment if y'all want me to make a video on that.
Hi, but what if I am married to a US citizen when i get that denial after my grace period is experied? do i still need to send that motion request or can i just send my marriage GC application and forget about OPT
Depending on if you still want work right now and have the chance of a successful motion. You still have to file for Employment Authorization after marriage and during the GC application.
Sir i got advance parol and work permit on marriage based but I have asylum withdrawal panding can wich is not immigration court yet can i travel my home country and come back safely
In this case, better speak with your attorney before the trip
But if you get denial and grace period ended ? You want to leave the country, do they give up a time frame to leave or you automatically go out of status
the last day would usually be on the denial notice, if not speak with your school DSO and act as soon as possible.
Very useful video! Do you or know anyone who does provide service/ advice on filling DS160 for F1 Renewal on Day1 CPT?
Yes I know several former US visa officers that could help, reach out to me and I'll forward you the contacts: asiantalkteam@gmail.com
What if I transfer my sevis and travel on transfer pending I20. But enter the US 10 days before program starts and have all supporting documents?
I got into the Trine University program and have further questions regarding taking holidays and the whole program itself. Please provide me with more info!
sure, chat with us here: goelite.com/youtube/goelite-free-consultation
Does the school issue an f1 visa ?
a F1 status? Yes. Meaning you become a active F1 student holding valid I-20. A F1 visa? You have to get that through the US embassy.
Thank you so much for the informative video. I met the admissions counselor of Westcliff University to inquire about Day 1 CPT and I am the resident of Georgia. So, he mentioned that I wont be able to apply to westcliff because there are certain states where they don't offer admissions. Can you pls suggest specific universities which provide admissions to Georgia residents? Thank you.
Of course, we do need to know a bit more about your background and interests, get in touch with us here, goelite.com/youtube/goelite-free-consultation
Hello what if I have used/ applied for stem extension using my previous bachelor degree but I used 9months out of 24 months. Now I’m in OPT for my master program (which is non-stem) would I be able to get qualified/ approved for 2nd stem extension using that bachelor degree
Consult with our current international office might be the best way. But to my understanding, you used the STEM OPT for your bachelor's even if it wasn't the whole 24 months. Unless you applied for a 9-month extension which nobody really does. So if you're in a middle of first year OPT, the best option is to transition to day1cpt or H1B to continue work.
Hi, how to apply day 1 cpt student apply company’s it is possible to apply Amazon, apple and etc… big company’s
Absolutely, we do surveys from time to time, here's a list of companies sponsoring or rejecting day 1 cpt: goelite.com/company-support-cpt
Thank you so much! Is very difficult to find videos about f1 day 1 CPT renewal. This is very helpful! I have 2 questions 1. What do you suggest as a plan B in case of rejection, even if all the documents are right? 2. How can we explain our legitimacy with the new interview waiver process?
You got it! Your comment meant a lot for us. To answer your questions: 1. In terms of rejection, don't switch universities easily, get a written statement from your university to support your academic program choices or cpt if you're using them. I know it's hard but the best option is go again and proactively explain what did go well in your last interview and there's no need for them to doubt this time. Best of luck if this case does happen. 2. Interview waiver, if you are getting F1 for a new school (which also has day 1 cpt), I'm not an expert to speak on this, but I think it might take longer to get the visa, plus you still need to do interview if they request for it. People usually do the interviews.
thank you for responding! I have been hearing a lot of people are automatically eligible for interview waivers for f1 renewal since beginning of this year (i believe). So they essentially would drop off the application at the consulate dropbox. It’s would be greatly helpful if your videos can highlight this scenario while addressing renewal process 😊
Im a new immigrant on H4 visa also i have done my post graduation and other studies from India.. will i be eligible for Day 1 CPT directly after change of status from H4 to F1 and do i need SEVIS transfer?? Will college institution help me in finding Day 1 CPT employer??
Yes, you are eligible for day 1 cpt, but some universities have their own rules for COS. Some don't take COS students and some will need you to wait for couple months before you can do cpt. You won't need to SEVIS transfer. Ask us anything: goelite.com/youtube/goelite-free-consultation Schools have career services to help, but I say major part for finding a job is on you.
Thank you ❤
Hey let me know what question they ask when u come back?
Even though there're lists of day 1 cpt universities that are popular, finding the right one for you, that matches your career background, location, budget, etc. can be a hassle. Get application fee waiver and consult for free here: goelite.com/youtube/goelite-free-consultation
Find a suitable university with support for any future RFEs can be crucial. If you're not sure which university is right for you, ask us anything here: goelite.com/youtube/goelite-free-consultation

Is National Louis University a good option for Day 1 CPT?
Sure, they have two campuses in Florida and Chicago, as well as Master's and Doctoral programs. I would consider if my background and location fit well with what they offer. For more support on finding the right university: asiantalkteam@gmail.com
I have a volunteering offer letter from professor (it is unpaid) . Does that work?
If you're talking about OPT, you don't need a paid position to get the OPT EAD card. So yes, if this is your initial opt you can travel with the EAD while having an volunteer job offer.
I m planning for a 4 month long trip to India . I m on OPT and I have my EAD in hand
If you have an active F1 visa, technically there isn't regulation stoping you from entering, but I think they might ask questions, 4 months is not a short time frame so definitely some risk factors to consider. If you're going for F1 stamping also, the 4 months might be hard to explain.
@@day1cpt what's the ideal time frame I should go for

Can the new school help in the process of the SEVIS transfer, for instance I just got an admission, and I have been issued SEViS, and I am in the process of Day 1 CPT, can the new school help in the transfer of my SEVIS number and record?
Yes the new school definitely come in crucially, however it cannot do anything if your old school's not releasing your SEVIS. It's until the SEVIS release after you submit the transfer out form, your new school can finally transfer in SEVIS - process and issue I-20 - Process CPT - You start day 1cpt
So, my STEM OPT will end on 29AUG24. My program starts on 19AUG24. Can I choose to request my SEVIS transfer to my new school on 16AUG24 (Friday) which then I would start working on the next week Monday when my class starts?
Technically yes, realistically not likely, the school can only process your CPT I-20 after receiving your SEVIS. if they have your SEVIS by Friday, they need couple days to 1-2 weeks to process, depending on the school and its volume.
Hello, thank you for this very helpful video. I have a question. You mentioned at 2:49 "if you're still in the middle of a semester...withdraw from the next semester while you have to finish the current study." I actually talked to my immigration attorney the other day, and he told me it's okay to withdraw from the current semester after Oct 1 (after my H1b is activated.) Are you aware of an instance where withdrawing from the current semester had a negative effect on future GC applications or H1b transfer or the relevant law? Thank you.
This can get technical with the timeline. I would not advice to withdraw in the middle of a semester, even though you don't need a CPT for work anymore after H1B activated. I personally think is safer to at least finish the current semester.
@@day1cptyour personal opinion is worth crap bro, why are you fear mongering without any credible information about that. When its clearly said that the immigration attorney said there would not be a problem. 🤦🏻♂️
Opt ended on 18th June. Left country on 19th June. F1 visa valid till August 2026. Want to start day 1 CPT college starting October 19th. Will my old SEVIS be continued or needs a new SEVIS because of the gap?
Once OPT completed, you have 60 days of grace period to stay in the US while the previous school still holds your active SEVIS. However, when you leave the US during the grace period, your school might terminate your SEVIS. The best action for now is to reach out to the international department to ask if you still have an active SEVIS with them and you want to transfer out. You do have to secure an admission for SEVIS transfer though, as the first step mentioned in the video.
Is it advisable for an international student to join a Day 1 CPT program for their first Master’s degree? If so, could you suggest reputable universities offering CPT for a Master’s in Information Systems (STEM program) with good recognition and accreditation? Additionally, please include information about the risk of receiving a Request for Evidence (RFE) and how to mitigate it.
If you're interested in a free consultation send us an email: asiantalkteam@gmail.com We're happy to recommend some programs based on your background. Regarding RFE, check out the new video: ua-cam.com/video/hEK5kBcpfW8/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
If I enroll in a Day 1 CPT program and secure a permanent job, how does that work? If I start my course in September with Day 1 CPT and it is a permanent job, what should I consider? If I work full-time for 12 months under CPT, I understand that I won't be eligible for OPT. In that case, what is the recommended plan? Until I convert from H4 to F1, I won't be eligible for CPT, correct? How long does it typically take to change my visa status from H4 to F1 within the country?
You could apply for CPT in the middle of the program and get work authorization. It's not a requirement to use CPT or have a job by start of class for most univeresties. Part-time cpt does not affect your OPT eligibility. If no opt, changing to an H1B can also allow you to continue to work. H4 to F1 without premium processing is 3 to 6 months according to guidelines.

Hi does Harrisburg offer day 1 cpt based phd programs ?
Not at the moment. If you interested in a list of phd programs, send me an email at asiantalkteam@gmail.com
Thanks a ton for the info, also please make a video on Day 1 CPT programmes near silicon valley. It will be useful for software engineers.
What about saint peters New Jersey
Saint Peter's is a great option if you work in tech or business sector. They have 2 CPT programs both stem, Business Analytics and Data Science. There's a live session to learn more about SPU:ua-cam.com/users/liveIoOBPHUMKRU?feature=shared
39:53 现在这个通勤距离问题怎么解决呢, 所有的 Day 1 CPT 都面临这个问题啊.
Choose the university within the same state of your residence, prepare reason statement of why this program specifically is your best option for education and career advancement. Keep records of on-campus attendance. Even if encountering an RFE, yourself and the school's RFE program(international department) should be able to provide all documents necessary.
Hi, Can you answer, I have less than 6 in one module which is Writing. Can I still apply or should I go for another attempt.
Send me an email and I'll ask the school about this case.🙂asiantalkteam@gmail.com
Thank you, very helpful. Could you talk about how to apply? Can i apply myself? Thx
Do you mean the GC or Day 1 CPT?
I already Applied this University. For Master’s September intake 2024..
Nice, i will be resuming October 2024
470K Registration (Not 70K)
Hi, if the OPT ends on 27th June and class starts on 13th July, do you think i can transfer the Sevis on 26th or 27th of June?? i was told we have 60days grace period wherein our SEVIS is active
Yes, you can still transfer your SEVIS after OPT ends, the grace period is indeed 60 days. But talk to your OPT school DSO to arrange the date first, they might not guarantee a date to you.
Please tell me. I've read all sorts of topics about this university. As an immigrant who is ready to study, do homework, but use 1daycpt, how safe will it be for me to go there?
To minimize risk, Day 1 CPT's focus should always not be limited to work, but maintaining a full-time student status. Watch this vid: ua-cam.com/video/Cbq2P5TlY74/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared

I liked the content of your videos. Could you make one for STEM Doctoral programs?
I'll definitely get there. Right now there isn't much selections of Day 1 CPT STEM Doctoral programs in the US, with most common ones being DBA. If you have a specific question you're always welcome to email me asiantalkteam@gmail.com😄
5:11 Does Irvine campus have DBA with a professional format? Is the in-person requirement of a professional course for DBA same as Masters? ie once in a semester
That's correct, for the professional format, if you live 50 miles away from campus, the onsite is once every semester. (one weekend)
