    International students who want to stay back and gain work experience in the US after completing their degree have the option to do so through OPT. Those who apply for OPT after graduation can work in the USA for up to 12 months. Students who have graduated with a STEM degree can request an additional stay back of 24 months on OPT. The Post-graduate work permit is one of the most important factors that students prefer to study in the USA.

    Yes, the USA offers a work study permit after completing a BTech degree through the Optional Practical Training (OPT) program. STEM graduates are eligible for up to 36 months of OPT, including a 24-month extension. This allows international students to gain valuable work experience in their field of study.
