I am an accepted student in the United States on an F1 visa. How do I get work authorization to participate?
Please talk to your international student affairs office for more details. In the past, students on an F1 visa have participated in Google Summer of Code through CPT, but you will need to check with your university to see what will work best. If you need a letter from Google to establish CPT, we will email the documentation to you. More details on how to request a letter for CPT will be published later. If there is specific information that must be contained in the letter or there are other instructions for returning it, e.g. it must be faxed to your student affairs office, include this information when requesting the documentation.
