Hi lfc123, Many thanks for your kind reply. I agree with you that I should not rely solely on this kinda forum for my situation. Yes, International Student Advisor in my college is the right person to talk with and get help for this matter, which I have been doing. I know, that Int. Student Advisor is the ultimate savior in my case, but it does not harm having an additional suggestions from a student like me, especially a situation like me and being a Nepali student. My VISA will expire on December 2006, so like you said, I am fine with it, as I don't have to reapply for VISA. However, I am wondering what happens after that- like if I am going to have either OPT or I will continue my Masters Degree- so long as VISA is concerned. Well, hoping more suggestions from fellow students in Sajha. Thanks!
