现在申请OPT，学校都要额外收钱了？

首先先贴一个ucsd的email：

NEW POST-COMPLETION OPT/STEM OPT/AT ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSING FEE ON OCTOBER 1, 2018

Effective October 1, 2018, the International Students & Programs Office (ISPO) will implement a new administrative processing fee for Post-Completion Optional Practical Training (OPT), STEM Optional Practical Training (OPT), and Academic Training (AT). The Post-Completion OPT/STEM OPT/AT Administrative Processing Fee is required for ISPO to comply with mandatory federal regulations and maintain U.S. Department of Homeland Security systems for F-1 and J-1 SEVIS records while students are no longer enrolled at UC San Diego.

Students are required to pay the Post-Completion OPT/STEM OPT/AT Administrative Processing Fee each time they apply for post-completion employment authorization. Fees are:

• Academic Training for J-1 students: $100
• OPT for F-1 students: $100
• STEM OPT Extension for F-1 students: $300
  

-baidu 1point3acresISPO strongly encourages Summer & Fall 2018 graduating students and those applying for STEM OPT to submit their applications for post-completion OPT/AT/STEM OPT as soon as possible. Applications received ON or AFTER October 1, 2018 will be assessed the new administrative processing fee and proof of payment will be required with the application.

If you have any questions, please contact iemployment@ucsd.edu or visit http://iemployment.ucsd.edu

也就是说，以后申请opt，就要交$410 + $100? 申请 opt extension 就要 $410 + $300?

是因为学生太多了，才收钱的？有其他学校像这样收钱的吗？

好吧，原来老早就有其他学校开始收这个钱了。希望收钱之后他们的工作效率会高一点吧。

毕竟免费了那么久。。突然说收钱就收钱。诶。

我校不收。之前有国际生每人每年交45刀的办公费，都被CSSA联合其他国家留学生组织闹了三年，闹到不收了…………

UT Austin OPT $150, stem OPT $300...我是眼睁睁看着它涨的...9月之前还是OPT $100, stem OPT $175....不过我们有1对1 check材料，现场出I20当天就可以邮寄了...

卧槽，这么一对比看来我们这破学校（San Diego State）还不错啊，不收钱，而且international student center的人态度超级好

我们学校一直是收钱的

我们学校收不到50块钱，然后寄出，收信都是学校办公室处理，这样感觉肯定不会寄丢，感觉还挺好的。

我们一直收钱的 好几百= =

感觉分学校，我们学校不收钱（然鹅advisor态度却不太好。。。）

和LZ是校友，前几个月刚交了stem OPT申请。。。据我所知好几个UC都收费很久了，留学生的钱最好薅羊毛了呗。。。

我校cap-gap都收，就不展开黑了

我们收的 不过比你们少一点

我们就是他们的金库
