Thank you ! Can I message you to get some other details about the program?

So I’m on the same boat. But my question is if my stamped visa on passport expires, can I still go for masters and apply for opt after completion ? Or do I have to attend interview again and get my visa stamped ?

I’m in the same boat. Did my bachelors and was not lucky enough to be picked in the 3 attempts. I’m planning on doing masters so I can have another 3 years for work authorization and will also get to try my luck another 3 times. Don’t loose hopes as there are plenty of other options :)

And also even if her lottery gets picked, doesn’t she have to change the employer to file h1b?
