TRUMP ADMINISTRATION PROPOSES $70,000 OPT FEE FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS SEEKING TO WORK IN U.S.
The Trump administration has proposed a $70,000 fee connected to the Optional Practical Training program used by international students seeking U.S. work experience related to their studies. Under the proposal, schools would pay $70,000 for an initial OPT application and $30,000 for renewals. The measure has not yet taken effect and must first go through federal rulemaking, with universities, businesses and immigration groups expected to challenge it.
