Summaries

Summary Sentence: International student advisors run small group workshops for thesis students who will apply for OPT in the near future.

Full Summary: No summary paragraph submitted.

Thesis students are encouraged to attend these small group workshops to work with an international student advisor to determine their OPT timeline. These sessions are limited to 15 students to ensure that each student gets individual time and is able to get all questions answered. Please use the iStart scheduler to sign up for one of these sessions.

  • Friday, April 3rd at 2 pm in Savant 308
  • Tuesday, April 21st at 11 am in Savant 308

Before attending, thesis students should have a good understanding of OPT so that we may spend time discussing your personal situation rather than providing an overview of OPT. Therefore, any students who attend should review the OPT thesis tutorial and information found on our OPT website at oie.gatech.edu/opt.
