International students face serious consequences from simple oversights. A single missed deadline or paperwork error can derail your entire academic journey and career plans.
Students lose visa status because they missed a critical OPT application window or forgot to report an address change within 10 days.
Accidentally working 21+ hours during the semester can jeopardize your visa status and future immigration benefits.
Different sources provide advice about CPT, OPT, and STEM OPT rules leading to costly mistakes.
Traveling with an invalid I-20 signature can result in denied re-entry to the United States.
We believe international students should spend their energy on academics, research, and personal growth not worrying about visa compliance. F1-Compass was founded by former international students who experienced firsthand the anxiety of navigating complex immigration rules.
In 2019, our founder nearly lost his visa status after missing an OPT application deadline by three days. Despite being a straight-A student at a top university, he had no automated system to track the complex web of dates, rules, and requirements.
After consulting with immigration attorneys and Designat School Officials, We realized this wasn't an isolated incident. Thousands of talented students face visa complications every year not because the system is genuinely complex.
F-1 Compass was built to be the safety net that every international student deserves.
