How CPT works
CPT is curricular practical training authorized by an F-1 student's school, not the employer. The school's DSO authorizes it as an integral part of the curriculum, typically an internship or co-op, and the employer only provides an offer letter. Twelve or more months of full-time CPT eliminates OPT eligibility, so check the terms with your DSO first.

Which companies offer the most CPT jobs?
Medpace has the most, with 16 live CPT jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by NEURALINK (13) and Neuralink (10). Across the 10 research organizations on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 49 live CPT jobs, updated daily.
Who is eligible for CPT?
F-1 students enrolled at a U.S. college or university are eligible for CPT if the practical training is an integral part of their curriculum, such as a required internship or co-op. Eligibility requires completion of at least one full academic year of study, a job offer directly related to the student's field of study, and authorization from the Designated School Official at the student's institution before work begins.
How much does F-1 CPT cost?
F-1 CPT is student work authorization, so there is no employer sponsorship fee. The student pays the USCIS filing fee for the work-authorization application, plus any costs their school charges. Fee amounts change from time to time, so check the current figure before you rely on it.
How do I get CPT through a top employer?
Start by securing a written offer letter from the research employer that describes the role, start date, and how it connects to your degree program. Bring that letter to your school's international student office and request CPT authorization from your Designated School Official. The DSO updates your student record and issues a new I-20 listing the CPT employer. You may not begin work until that updated I-20 is in hand. The entire authorization process happens through your school, not through any government agency.
