If you are applying for asylum, and asking for advanced parole to go back to Nepal, you might have some problem, because the only basis of your asylum is you will have hard time if you go back to Nepal. While is some cases that might be true, but you better be a good talker if your case goes to the court.
You are eligible for TPS, the only criteria is you are a Nepali citizen and are in the US on or before 24 June.
If you take 18 month break from school, make sure you get permission from the DSO and ask him/her to maintain the status of your SEVIS, that way you can go back to F1 after 18 months. If SEVIS is not in status, you can not go back to F1. (You can, but you have to reapply i20, may be go back to Nepal and re-apply for F1 visa)
