Every year, approximately 700,000 international students come to the United States to study. Every single one must apply for and receive the F-1 student visa in their passport before coming to the US. Once international students have graduated, they can apply for US work authorization known as “Optional Practical Training” (OPT).
)
International students who have completed a degree in the UK are eligible for a two-year Graduate Immigration Route visa. (For visa applicants from January 1, 2027, this will be an 18-month work visa.)
)
Internationals who have secured a full-time job in the UAE are eligible for an employment visa. Start searching early for an employer who could sponsor you after graduation.
Note: To be eligible for a post-study visa, you must study at the campus location of the country offering the visa.
"The benefits of having done OPT are numerous. It has allowed me to gain valuable professional experience in the US and build my career in a way that I would never have been able to do without it."
