wait until graduating semester) and you are only required to attend one
(1) OPT workshop during your academic program.
The ISSO will also host a Curricular Practical Training workshop on

academic year at a DHS approved school in the U.S. (1 Fall term + 1
Spring term, any order) prior to the CPT period. There are some
exceptions to this requirement.
