Hey everyone 👋 I’m currently an international student from Bangladesh studying Computer Science in the U.S. I plan to graduate in May 2026 and already have a tech internship lined up for Summer 2026 (which I’d like to use my OPT for). However, I’m planning to switch to an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) program starting Fall 2026. My long-term goal is to become an RN, get sponsored for a green card (EB-3 Schedule A), and later pivot into health tech entrepreneurship — blending my tech and healthcare backgrounds. Here’s where I’m confused and would really appreciate some clarity: - If I use my OPT for my tech internship in Summer 2026, can I still apply for OPT again after completing my ADN nursing program? - Would there be any CPT opportunities during the ADN program that could help me work legally in the meantime? - Is this switch considered a higher or lower educational level in SEVIS terms? I’d love to hear from anyone who’s gone through a similar transition (tech → nursing), or DSOs familiar with F-1 to EB-3 (nursing) pathways. Thanks so much for your guidance 😊
