24-Month STEM Extension Application
for F-1 International Students
General Information:
The 24-Month STEM Extension allows certain F-1 students who are on post-completion OPT to apply for a 24-month
extension of their one-year post-completion OPT. The STEM extensions can be issued based on your current
degree
or a previous degree that is a qualified STEM major.
Qualifications:
• Valid passport
• You are currently approved for post-completion OPT.
• You completed a bachelor's or master's in a science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) field. Visit
the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement website for the STEM Designated Degree Program List
.
Eligible degrees are listed by their Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) code. Your degree's CIP
code is listed on the "primary major" line on page 1 of your I-20.
• You have a job with an E-Verify employer.
• You are limited to one STEM extension per STEM degree (For example, if you received a STEM extension
for a bachelor’s degree in Engineering, you would not qualify for a STEM extension for an MBA.)

Part #3: Send the completed OPT Extension Application to USCIS for approval and issuance of an EAD:
1. OPT application must be received by USCIS within 30 days after the OPT I-20 is issued. Mail
the above documents via FedEx to:
Department of Homeland Security USCIS

Lewisville, TX 75067
Part #4: If for any reason you later decide not to mail your OPT STEM application to USCIS (Form I-765 plus
supporting documentation), you must notify your International Student Advisor immediately so that we may
cancel your OPT STEM recommendation in SEVIS in a timely manner. Failure to inform an OISS advisor that
you are not applying for OPT can cause problems for you in the future.
Part #5: Once you receive your Employment Authorization Document (EAD), submit a color copy to OISS.
USCIS requires that a copy of this document be kept in your file with the university. Please do not forget this
step!
Part #6: The student’s employer must report to the OISS within 5 days when the employment is terminated. The
student must make periodic reports to the OISS with name, and address changes and any interruptions in
employment as well as completing a year self-evaluation.
