How many CPT's dude?? What kind of F1 program is this??

Its really hard to find one CPT course in a degree and you took 3 CPT's?? Which school is this??

Obviously something is wrong here, please contact an attorney as you are already in trouble.

This will not afffect your OPT. Make sure all these CPT's are authorized by DSO. This looks like CPT program more than academic program.

 

It indeed looks like CPT abuse. And that of course will affect OPT and the OP's future career in the US.

And aside from that, if the CPT adds up to a year, it is not possible to get OPT at all.
