Hi, I'm a Master degree holder in AI and ML from VIT, Vellore and currently working as a software engineer at Bengaluru, I'm planning to take one more masters from either Drexel or Temple University in Philadelphia. But I came across some article that OPT Program is gonna be stop by Trump Administration and have to come back after studies. So My question is Will it be a good time to apply for Fall 2025 or should I wait? Can I expect any changes by the time of graduation(2027)?
Ans: It's a very good question in a very good time. This is not the time to go to USA as a student. Let the dust settle and wait for at least one year. There is no point in returning to India with a degree from USA. It includes huge expenditure, because now a days funding is mostly stopped. So continue your job and seek my advice after one year. Best of luck. Professor
