US OPT Program Uncertainty Impacts Indian Graduates' Job Prospects

Imagine you're a student from India who wants to study in the US and get a job there after graduation.

The US has a program called OPT that lets you work in your field for up to three years.

Now, there's talk of ending this program.

This is making many students nervous because it could mean they can't work in the US after finishing school.

Some are losing job offers, and others are deciding not to go to the US for school.

This is because they worry it won't be worth it if they can't get a job and gain work experience after graduation.

The US government is considering this to protect American workers.
