Let me share a true 'horror story' of #academia titled #STEMOPT. Imagine being an #internationalstudent in a #globapandemic #COVID19 and finishing a #PhD while navigating this process. read on... Image
In layman terms OPT from #USCIS is required for all #internationalstudents in Masters' and PhD programs to legally work in the US after completing the degree. My application got approved last week amidst the possibility that new OPT approvals might be cancelled for the year. sigh Image
I had to a) give up a dream #postdoc @UTAustin and apologize for it. b) Survive 4 months without financial support waiting 2.5 months. c) Run a household of 2 (wife, a software engineer unable to work in US due to visa restrictions) and finish requirements for my #PhD.

THREAD: Financial hardship for international students.

It is hard to imagine the incredible financial hardship that the international students who stayed in the United States are going through.

(1/n)
The international students who went back home are doing "relatively" well from a financial standpoint.

Most of them are living with their parents and their families can help support them with basic needs.

The ones who stayed, however, face a very different situation.

(2/n)
For an international student who stayed in the United States, they will have - at least - the following expenses:

- Groceries and basic supplies
- Housing

Other miscellaneous can come, but those are certainly the main expenses.
