NB SOdara:

Also - effective October 6, 2013 - students who only have the thesis or equivalent remaining in the STEM degree may either apply for pre-completion OPT , post-completion OPT while completing the thesis/dissertation and if they are **NOT** done with the thesis /dissertation during the 1 year post completion OPT they can still **go ahead** an apply for the 17 month extension. However - as is always the case the time period utilized in the pre-completion OPT will be reduced from the 1 year post completion OPT.

Neni999 Sodara:

As of now their are Some Schools Where Students graduating in MIS are not eligible for 17 Months STEM Ext.. as their School have different code ...... even if this takes effective .. the Schools still need participate Right !

It is going to take effect - it is just a matter of when. You are right about the codes- they are called CIP codes and in the past some forms of Engineering did not qualify. But now everything in this list qualifies. In late 2012, they have included the non-qualifying forms of Enginnering as Engineering - "Other".

For a more deatiled discussion on the old list refer to the Eligible Degrees section in this link. In other words - the new list in the first link replaces the information in the second link. And all forms of Engineering are covered by Engineering - "Other" - this is very good news.

Also - schools cannot independently decide to make a decision on participation - they either qualify or do not qualify based on the STEM-Designated Degree Program List.

They have to appply for H-1. For an 17 extension of the second non-stem degree in the US (in this case Business) the first stem degree (in this case Pharmacy) should also be an F-1 based US degree.

Highly Possible in 2014: USCIS is potentially going to enable F-1 nonimmigrant students who complete a 1 year (OPT) to qualify for the 17-month extension based on either a prior STEM degree or the most recent degree granted if it in a STEM area.

This means that if one has previously a STEM degree but currently in non-STEM degree OPT (1year) will be able to extend to the 17-month STEM OPT.This is in addition to the inclusion of fields such as Veterinary Sciences, Pharmaceutical Science, Economics and Behavioural Sciences to the expanded list of STEM qualifed degrees avaialble in this complete list This means that if your most recent degree is Business Administration and you are on an 1 year OPT as it is not in the STEM list but your previous F-1 based American degree is Live Stock Management" or "Poultry Science" you get an 17 month extension :-).

On a serious note this is very helpful for people with a Economics, Agriculture or Pharmacy background from their home country who continue in the same area after arriving to the US but did not previously qualify for the STEM extension. However there is little or no clarity on what are your 17 month extension prospects of Degree #2 in an non-STEM area if you have already utlized a 1year+17 month extension on your STEM qualified degree prior to enrolling into the second degree. This shall be more clear in the coming months.
