After the Monday, February 9th workshop we will begin scheduling OPT appointments that will start on Monday, February 16, 2009 for students graduating in the spring 2009 semester.  For more information on OPT please visit http://www.tamu-commerce.edu/international/faq.asp.     

 

Students who began their academic program at TAMU-C Summer 2008 or before are not required to attend an OPT workshop before they can apply but they are strongly encouraged to attend.

 

Effective the Spring 2009 semester, students who began their academic program at TAMU-C in the fall 2008 semester or after will be required to attend an OPT workshop before they can apply for OPT.  Students may apply for post-completion in their last registered semester before graduation no more than 90 days before their program end date.   

 

Students that will be graduating in the 2009 spring and summer semesters are strongly encouraged to attend the OPT workshop as we will discuss the application process and regulations.  

 

We will be announcing OPT workshop dates in March and April at a later date.
