STEP 6: Initiate the ISSC CPT e-form

Once you receive the email with the completed SCAI Graduate Internship document you can initiate the CPT e-Form. 

Visit ISSC's CPT website and follow the instructions posted there.

The  CPT I20 request E-form will ask you to enter advisor information: **You must enter "SCAI Advising" as the advisor name, and enter scai.grad.CPT@asu.edu as the advisor email.**

Please note the following:

1. You must be registered in the appropriate 584 course and your future enrollment must match the number of credits listed on the iPOS before the CPT e-form can be completed.

2. Do not send follow-up emails alerting us that you have submitted the CPT e-Form or asking us to expedite it. You should allow at least 3 business days for the CPT e-form to be processed by SCAI.

3. Do NOT contact ISSC to request they expedite your request.  ISSC needs 7 business days to process I-20 requests. Contacting them to request that your application is expedited will only slow down the process. 

   • Note: If the CPT I-20 request form is submitted to SCAI less than 10 business days before your expected start date, then your start date may be changed. 

4. Until you have final approval from ISSC, you cannot start working or assume that you have authorization for CPT.
