Wellesley College Suspends Curricular Practical Training (CPT) for International Students

Wellesley College has announced an indefinite pause on Curricular Practical Training (CPT), a temporary work authorization for international students on F-1 visas to gain off-campus practical work experience. This policy change, driven by the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), will require international students to rely more heavily on experiential learning requirement credits for internships and research.
