OPT Denial -why?

I am a Canadian Citizen who lives in a U.S. border town. I recently graduated from a on-line course from a U.S. university. My one year clinical study, which was part of the program, was in the U.S.. I had a student Visa, so that I could travel daily across the border to my studies. Now that I have graduated I require an additional 6 month placement in my field, in order to write the board exams.
I applied for an OPT status. This was a very difficult process. The form required a U.S. residency address and because I would commuted from my place of residence, across the border to the U.S. clinic on a daily basis, I was told by a legal official to leave it blank. Well....my OPT was denied, due to "no" U.S. address.
I would like to know if there is anyway I can get this resolve.
