    Default Accepted for OPT but failed to complete requirements to grad

    Hi all,

    My situation is this:

    I was just accepted for the OPT (Optional Practical Training) as I check online and the card has already been ordered.

    I needed to fulfill language reqs. to grad and was testing out it them via the CLEP which I took a couple months back in a different language and didn't pass, I didn't pass this time either.

    I work part time at my university and they are preparing a job which will lead to them sponsoring for the H1-B.

    My situation is this, I cannot repeat the lang. test until november and my OPT start date on the app. was Aug 15th. Can I just wait till then and test out of the classes without letting the International Student Office know and then carry on as usual in the meantime with my 20hr/week job till then?

    What are my options here? I would like if possible to remain on the job as it guarantees a H1-B application which is not subject to the vias cap due to the higher-education status.

    Given the specificity of your inquiry, and the potential complications that could result from a mistake, I suggest you consult with an immigration lawyer about your situation.
