Welcome to CISI.

CISI is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We help international students understand their options to study, work, and stay in the United States.

Many students feel confused about F-1 status, OPT, Day 1 CPT, H-1B, and what to do next. CISI is here to make these topics easier to understand.

On this channel, we share simple and useful information about Day 1 CPT, CPT programs, H-1B, F-1 status, U.S. status questions, and legal education seminars. Our goal is to help students find clear, legal, and practical solutions for staying in the U.S.

CISI is also an ICEF-accredited education organization. We are committed to giving students reliable, updated, and student-focused guidance.
