Optional Practical Training (OPT) is work authorization available to international students who have been in valid F-1 status for at least four consecutive quarters and who plan to seek employment in the US in their field of study. OPT is recommended by PAU Student Services, but final approval is granted by the US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS). This final approval can take between two to four months, so plan ahead! OPT allows for a total of 12 months of employment.
Curricular Practical Training is used for engaging in all off campus practicum or internships that are integral to the F-1 international student’s academic program.
Omnilert is PAU’S emergency alert system, managed by the IT Department in the Division of Finance and Operations, which sends an SMS text and/or email notification to the PAU community in the event of urgent or emergency situations affecting PAU (i.e. power outages, email outages, road closures, campus closures etc.).
