Curricular Practical Training (CPT)
Authorization Request Form
Who should complete this form?
All eligible F-1 students who intend to participate in Curricular Practical Training (CPT).
Is there anything I should know before completing this application?
Students cannot engage in CPT until they receive written authorization from the Office of Global Services (OGS) and
may only work within the dates specified on the new I-20 that they will be issued. Working without first obtaining
authorization from the OGS or working outside of the dates authorized by the OGS is a serious violation that could
result in SEVIS termination.
If you are not pursuing a co-op, the course that requires CPT must also be a requirement of your academic program.
Any additional training dates or orientation days must be authorized in advance.
F-1 students who engage in more than 364 days of full-time CPS authorization per degree level will lose their Optional
Practical Training (OPT) eligibility. It is the responsibility of the student to track their CPT usage.
How do I complete and submit this application?
Step 1: Print the Curricular Practical Training (CPT) Authorization Form
Step 2: Have the second page completed by your designated advisor (co-op advisor for co-op requests and academic advisor
for all others) and signed by all appropriate parties
Step 3: Log into the myOGS e-form at the link below. Please copy and paste this into your browser.

Step 4: Fill out eform fields and upload the completed CPT Authorization Request Form along with your passport and I-94
What other documents will I need to submit?
Copy of biographical page of valid passport
Copy of I-94 that indicates “Class of Admission” as “F-1” and “Admit Until Date” as “D/S”
Program Extension: If you’re requested CPT dates go beyond the program end date on the first page of your I-20, you
must submit a program extension before submitting a CPT request. All CPT requests that go beyond the program end
date without an extension request will be automatically denied.
Other documents as prompted on e-form
How do I know if I am authorized?
Students will receive an email from the OGS when their new I-20 is ready for pick up. The processing time is 10 business days.
You must pick up your documents from the OGS prior to your start date and may only work within the CPT dates reported on
your I-20. Please remember to keep all previous I-20s.
Important: Incomplete or inaccurate requests will be denied and need to be resubmitted. Please ensure this form is
completed entirely and accurately. It is the policy of Northeastern University that a graduate student is not eligible to apply
for CPT if they currently hold or is in the process of obtaining a Graduate Assistantship during the same time period of the
requested CPT.
