The Trump administration is reportedly considering a proposal to impose a $100,000 fee on the Optional Practical Training (OPT) programme, a key pathway that allows international students to work in the United States after graduation and often serves as the first step toward an H-1B visa. The move comes after a federal appeals court blocked an earlier plan to impose the same fee on new H-1B applications.
If implemented, the proposal could have a significant impact on Indian students, who make up the largest international student community in the U.S. and account for nearly three-quarters of H-1B visa holders. With families investing heavily in overseas education, the reported plan could dramatically increase the cost of pursuing the American dream.
