My initial OPT got expired by May 13th. And OPT STEM extension got denied on June 17th.

 

Now I am planing to change my SEVIS to new University (for Masters) to keep my status alive. I am aware that I have to do that within 60 days (before July 12th). However, the semester at the new college starts on September 28th.

 

My question is,

 

My international office people said that I have to transfer my SEVIS with in 60 days of OPT expiration, and I can join the college with in 5 months (October 10 th) after my OPT expiration date. As the college starting date is Sep 28th, they said that I can proceed with this SEVIS change and university transfer.

 

Can any one please confirm me if the above issue is true.

 

Thanks in advance.
