Mr. Khanna & other experts,
I am currently on an F1 Visa and I am pursuing TWO masters programs (at two different schools) in the same university. I am almost done with one of the programs and one semester done at the second.
I have been offered a 2-year FULLTIME fellowship at the CDC and I plan to do it on my Student Visa (F1).
I have two questions:-
1. Will my plan work? My plan is:-
(All my academic advisors have given me a Go. I am concerned about the Visa issues)
Question 2: Will I have the chance to use the rest of the OPT (8 months) after i graduate from School 2?
I would appreciate if you could give me an answer ASAP.
Thank you,
Neo_24m.
PS: This fellowship is related both my masters programs and hence i have the support of my academic advisors.
