The report your family actually needs

One page: recommended school, total 2-year cost ($124K), expected break-even (3.4 years on median outcomes), overall confidence rating, and the three biggest risks.
2. What the money buys
Costs itemized against comparable options, including the cheaper school your student is also considering and what the difference purchases (sponsor ecosystem, co-op program, cap-exempt fallback).
3. How your student will be allowed to work
The F-1 → CPT → OPT → STEM OPT → H-1B/self-petition sequence explained without jargon, with your student's actual dates on a timeline.
4. The employment plan
Target roles and salaries, the employer landscape near campus, and the month-by-month plan F-1Careers will hold your student to.
5. What could go wrong
Honest scenarios: no offer by month 9, lottery misses, program changes - and the pre-planned response to each.
6. Questions to ask the university
Ten questions for the international office and career services, with the answers strong programs give.
