Don't forget we will have an Optional Practical Training workshop this Tuesday, June 15 at 3pm and Wednesday, June 16 at 10am in the ISSO in Halladay 104. Please join us if you would like to learn more about your post-graduation employment options in the U.S. Students who began their academic program in Fall 2008 or after are required to attend the workshop before applying for OPT. Students may attend the workshop at any time during their academic program.
We are scheduling OPT appointments at this time for students who are graduating during the summer semester. Please call the ISSO at 903-886-5097 to schedule an appointment. For the application process please visit http://www.tamu-commerce.edu/international/offcampus_employment.asp.
The International Student Services office (ISSO) is also sponsoring a trip for international students to the NorthPark Mall and a couple of local cultural market areas in Richardson. NorthPark Mall is one of the larger malls in the DFW area and for more information you may visit http://www.northparkcenter.com/.
The two cultural market areas we plan to visit are the Indian shopping area in Richardson, TX off South Central Expressway (Taj Mahal Imports, Udipi Café, etc.) and a small Chinatown area off Greenville Avenue in Richardson. We will consider other cultural market locations for other nationalities if interested.
The trip is planned for Saturday, June 19 and we will leave from between Cowling and Lieberman Halls on-campus at 8:30am and return to Commerce around 4pm. The shuttle is not one-way and students must return to Commerce. The cost of the trip will be $5 (cash only-exact change please) to reserve your seat and is non-refundable. Seating is very limited. The deadline to sign up is Thursday, June 17 at 4pm and students must sign up in person at the ISSO in Halladay 104.
