  1. after you finish your school, you will get OPT (optional practical training). your international student officer from your school will explain more about it.

    (OPT) is a period during which undergraduate and graduate students in F-1 status who have completed or have been pursuing their degrees for more than 9 months are permitted by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to work for at most one year on a student visa without needing to acquire a work H-1B visa towards getting a practical training to complement their field of studies.

    The OPT permit card (employment authorization document) can be obtained from USCIS before completion of a degree program through the university's International Student Office or equivalent upon filing of the relevant form (I-765), payment of fee ($340), and sending copies of I-20, passport, visa and other required documentation. The process can take up to 4 months to complete.
