"A student can participate in OPT more than once at the same degree level as long as they do not participate in STEM extension" is False.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The STEM OPT extension is a 24 month extended training period which is directly related to the degree program of an F-1 applicant in an authorized STEM field. During the 60-day grace period, participants may not request for STEM OPT extensions after an initial period of standard OPT post-completion. A participant can only participate once in OPT at the same degree level. While a participant may participate twice during their academic career course in the STEM OPT extension.
