After you find a job: documentation, email explanations, and how to handle everything with the university — the advisory provides complete guidance.

Investment
Investment that pays off with your first paycheck
These are not two plans. These are two different payments:
1. What you pay to Global Link
CPT Advisory — $150
Our advisory fee. Paid now, directly to Global Link.
- Complete guidance
- Guide on where to find jobs
- Document verification
- Job Offer Letter
- Documentation/emails/university explanation
- SSN support
- Full portal access — all premium tools
2. What your university charges
University fee — around $200
Fee charged by your university to issue the I-20; amount may vary by institution (typically around $200). Paid later, directly to the university. NOT a Global Link fee.
