As far as I know it is exempt if you are a student. However, if you are on OPT, you have to pay SS and Medicare taxes. Only the assistantships (graduate, teaching etc) are exempt of SS and Medicare taxes. Please correct if I'm wrong.
I am not sure, but I guess if you have already paid the FICA taxes, it is highly unlikely that you will be refunded. You will get social security credits though.
