Hi, I graduated last fall (december 2012) in a non-STEM major. However, I got a job in IT field (through consultancy). My OPT expires on February of next year. My current company wants to hire me as a full-time employee, but I am in this confusing situation. H1B can only be filed on April 1st. What are my options? The only option that I can think of is going back to a college or University for a masters in a degree that requires immediate CPT (thay provides CPT in a few days or a week after registration). Do you know any such colleges or universities? And, what are the degrees that require immediate CPT? If anyone has ever been in this situation, please do post here; it will be of a great help. Please do share only reliable information and suggestions, and no profanity or hatred against anything or anyone. Thanks
