Part-Time vs. Full-Time CPT
Part-Time Training
During the school year while classes are in session, students can engage in CPT on a part-time basis, limited to no more than 20 hours per week. If eligible, there is no limitation on the length of time you may participate in part-time curricular practical training, but you must be maintaining lawful F-1 status.
Full-Time Training
A student can engage in full-time CPT during official University breaks and vacation. A student can also engage in full-time CPT during his/her dissertation or thesis stage. Note that CPT authorization ends when the student defends dissertation or finishes thesis. A student during his/her last semester may be authorized for full-time CPT if the student has been authorized for Reduced Course Load by ISSS. Full-time CPT allows the student to work more than 20 hours per week. There is no limitation upon the length of time you may participate in full-time CPT. However, if you participate in 12 months or more of full-time curricular practical training, you will not be eligible for post-completion optional practical training (OPT).
Application and Documentation Requirements
If you are unsure about your eligibility for CPT, you should first meet with an ISSS advisor (if possible, please bring any of the documents listed below to the initial consultation). If applicable, you should register for the CPT course prior to seeing an ISSS advisor. To apply for CPT, you must meet with an ISSS advisor and bring the following documents with you:
*
Copy of your official offer letter on company letterhead that is signed by the prospective employer. A photocopy is acceptable. The letter should include the employer’s name, address and dates of employment.
*
A CPT Recommendation Form completed by your academic advisor.
*
Proof of registration for CPT course if you are earning academic credit for the training. Note: you must be registered for CPT course in the same semester during which the work will be done. (i.e. You must be registered for CPT course in the summer if you will be working in the summer.)
*
Copies of your current immigration documents: passport (biographical data, photo, & expiration date pages), front and back of I-94 card, and I-20(s)
