Key Principles When Choosing Your Program

Principle 1: Link Your Program to Your Jobs

Choose a program related to your current or future job role.

Example: If you’re a software engineer, pick MS in Computer Science, not MS in Organizational Behavior.

Principle 2: Avoid Repeating the Same Major

Don’t select a program too similar to your previous degree at the same level - it may cause RFE issues.

Example: If you already hold a Master’s in Data Analytics, don’t pursue another one. Instead, consider an MBA with a focus in Business Analytics or aim for a doctorate.

Choosing the Right Intake Date

1. Check Your Status End Date

Always align your CPT start date with your OPT expiration (or other status end date).

Goal: avoid any long gaps in employment or status.

2. Factor in Employer Flexibility

If your employer allows unpaid leave → you have more flexibility to wait until the later intake.

If not → you must transfer SEVIS before the earlier intake.

Example

OPT ends: June 1

Intake options: Summer 1 (May 6) or Summer 2 (July 1)

With sufficient unpaid leave: transfer SEVIS & get CPT before July 10 → continue working smoothly.
With limited unpaid leave: transfer SEVIS before May 6 → maintain status without gaps.
