What are my options after OPT?
You have three options after OPT.
- Leave the US within your 60-day grace period
- While on OPT, apply for a new program of study. You must know
that you have been accepted before your 60-day grace period is over.
Your new program must start within 5 months of the OPT expiration date. - Apply for a change of visa status. You must apply and receive
approval before the 60-day grace period is over. A change of status
takes an average of 4 months (usually within 2-6 months) to adjudicate.
