CPT/OPT Workshop - SCI Students Only

SCI and OIS will be co-hosting three workshops this fall 2018 semester for international students in F-1 status (if you are in J-1 status, you may still attend, but may not find the information relevant).  CS and AI majors still affiliated with DSAS are also included on this invitation because OIS considers you a SCI student, regardless of your school affiliation.

This session will be offered on three dates (September 21, October 12, and November 9);  please choose to attend only one.  The content of all workshops will be the same.  Dates and locations are different.
