Is Day 1 CPT still an option after the expiration of STEM OPT? I have heard people saying USCIS has abolished Day 1 CPT and it's not a good idea to enroll in such and could cause a problem during H1B. I, however, could not find any resources online regarding this news and would like to confirm how far this is true.

I am looking for Day 1 CPT. I have been attending Harrisburg but I'm about to complete my first masters and the second one starts after a month. I cannot afford to hold 1 month of gap in CPT and be jobless. Please advise any school that offers day 1 CPTs. Please !
