Day 1 CPT Universities Enrollment Windows

In contrast to conventional universities, Day 1 CPT universities offer a greater number of enrollment opportunities throughout the year, tailored to meet the needs of post-OPT students. In 2025 & 2026, a comprehensive overview of all enrollment periods provided by Day 1 CPT universities in the United States is available for reference.

It is advisable for individuals whose OPT has expired or who are experiencing visa status issues to consider enrolling in a Day 1 CPT university to facilitate its reinstatement. These institutions are the optimal choice for those desiring to pursue higher education in the United States while also developing their career prospects.

Normally, the application deadline is one month before the program start date. If you are not sure if you can apply or not, feel free to send us messages on WhatsApp.
