Beyond Placement
Maximising Every
Opportunity the
Visa Allows
Getting your student into the right school is just the beginning. The U.S. student visa opens up a remarkable range of academic and professional opportunities that most families never fully take advantage of — because nobody guides them through it. We do.
01
Internships & CPT
Curricular Practical Training (CPT) allows F-1 students to work in paid internships directly related to their degree — often while still enrolled. We identify opportunities, confirm eligibility, and manage the authorisation process with your institution.
02
Dual Majors & Academic Planning
U.S. universities offer significant flexibility in degree construction. We work with your student to identify dual major or minor combinations that strengthen their career prospects — without extending their visa timeline unnecessarily.
03
OPT & STEM OPT Extensions
Eligible F-1 students may apply for up to 12 months of OPT related to their degree. Qualifying STEM graduates may apply for a further 24-month extension, for up to 36 months in total, subject to student, employer and application requirements. We help coordinate the process with your school; authorisation depends on the relevant authorities.
04
Visa Rule Updates & Compliance
U.S. immigration rules change. What was permissible last semester may not be this semester. We monitor SEVIS policy, USCIS guidance, and institutional compliance requirements — and brief families monthly so they are never caught off guard.
05
On-Campus Employment
F-1 students are permitted to work on-campus up to 20 hours per week during term. We help students identify and secure appropriate roles that build their resume without jeopardising their visa status or academic performance.
06
Ongoing Campus Support
Academic issues, administrative disputes, housing problems, health insurance questions — if something comes up on campus, your student has a consultant to call. We liaise directly with institutions on your behalf so your student can focus on their studies.
Who This Is For

Common Questions
Pricing FAQ
Can I use this service if my student is already in the U.S.?
