急！已经申请了post-opt 答辩也成功 但是论文无法按时提交

但这样子需要学校把i20的时间延长吗？

once you have OPT, you will have new i-20

opt ext 中 等H1b approve，我的论文chair还没有点头同意呢。没办法，当年幸运的拿到job offer，只能舍弃 论文去工作了

不会影响，但是要在extension之前搞完。uscis有个备忘录说了pending thesis也可以，只要你课上完了。不需要新的I20.
我就是这么过来的：
3月毕业，被xx导师拖thesis...

你说得对～但是这个要求只适用于graduate student吧，只要楼主不是本科生问题就不大

请问申请的是post-opt还是pre-opt？

Post. 18冬季毕业的

那被拖住的那个学期需要注册成fulltime吗？

这种情况需要把已经申请的based on graduation的opt withdraw回来
根据based on completion of course work重新申请一遍opt吗

thesis pending post-opt is totally fine, many people are doing that way actually...

just submit your thesis before your first 12 month opt expires

I don't think you have to enroll any course for the pending semester

my situation was similar to you, I finished dissertation but was asked to further revise the thesis by my advisor....... But my OPT/job started right after my dissertation, so I went to work and submitted my thesis one week later.

But you need to make sure there is no gap between your I20 program end date and OPT start date. Once you apply for graduation, ISSS will shorten your I20 to reflect the actually end date. If there is a gap between program end date and OPT start date, but you have not submitted your thesis. There may be some problem, you can double check with ISSS.

good luck! just go to work and submit your thesis later


补充内容 (2019-6-19 03:18):
don't need to enroll any course because you are on OPT

post OPT快过期了才交的毕业论文的飘过……

希望楼主顺利毕业！

每个学校的要求不一样，建议楼主还是问你们学校的ISS。在我们学校如果是博士，完成了所有course work，只剩下论文答辩，是可以自己定一个日期作为end date,然后申请POST-OPT， 然后在stem OPT之前完成论文就可以了。但是我们学校也要求CPT之后必须回学校enroll full time student 一个学期。所以每个学校要求不一样，还是以你们自己学校为准。
