Bro, I am not seeing any substancial help for F1 students. I have been hearing that, Once you apply TPS and work under that EAD, you are no more F1 and can't come back to your previous status once TPS is expired...all the students are now in risks of loosing their legal status if they apply for TPS.

http://www.uscis.gov/sites/def... How does the termination of TPS affect former TPS beneficiaries? After the designation of Bosnia-Herzegovina for TPS is terminated on February 10, 2001, aliens who are nationals of Bosnia-Herzegovina (and aliens having no nationality who last habitually resided in Bosnia-Herzegovina) will revert back to the immigration status they had prior to TPS, unless they have been granted another immigration status. The stay of removal and eligibility for employment authorization due to the designation of Bosnia-Herzegovina under the TPS program will no longer be available. However, the termination of the TPS designation for Bosnia-Herzegovina will not affect any pending applications for other forms of immigration relief. Those persons who received TPS under the Bosnia-Herzegovina designation will begin to accrue unlawful presence as of February 10, 2001, if they have not been granted any other immigration benefit or have no application for such a benefit pending. Under the 1996 Immigration Act, aliens who accrue 180 days to 364 days of unlawful presence may be barred from admission to the United States for a period of three years. Aliens who accrue 365 days or more of unlawful presence may be barred from admission to the United States for a period of 10 years.
