State the views of North Carolina State University

NC State will begin its 2020-21 academic year on August 10, nine days earlier than originally scheduled, and will forgo fall break in order to complete the semester before Thanksgiving, including finals. If you enrol online for Fall 2020 from abroad, or first enrol in on-campus courses in Spring 2021, you would not be eligible for CPT until Spring 2022.Please note that beginning your program on-line may impact your future ability to apply for CPT/OPT, if you become an on-campus student after your first semester on-line.

State the views of Rochester Institute of Technology.

The Fall semester online will not count towards the Curricular Practical Training (CPT) requirement of two semesters. RIT has extended the graduate deposit deadline from May 1 to May 15 to alleviate pressure on students and families. The tuition deposit is refundable only if you apply for and are denied a visa.

What are the implications of Cornel University?

Cornell remains open and all classes have moved to online instruction. If you’re an incoming student (no Active SEVIS record) an online semester spent entirely abroad will not count towards OPT/CPT eligibility.

How New York University is operating?

Planning to offer several remote learning options for those who cannot join us on campus in September. Remote options will also be available through the Spring and Summer 2021 terms to help meet social distancing requirements within classrooms, such as alternating in-person and online attendance in large lectures.
