Why choose Tern?
Lawyer-designed framework
Immigration lawyers write every rule your application is checked against. They update those rules whenever immigration law changes.Your completion date isn't your graduation date
The 6-month deadline to apply starts on the day your university told you in writing that you'd met every requirement, not your graduation ceremony. Miss that window and you cannot apply at all. Tern pins down your real completion date and flags the deadline before you pay.Requirements
