It is OK for full time pre-OPT and partime GRA?

Hi, all,

I am Graduate research assistantship (GRA) (20 h per week), now, I am pre-OPT full time employment, from Oct to Dec, 2009 before graduation. After graduation, from Jan 1, it is Post OPT employment, my question is follows:

1. During the Oct through Dec, 2009, new unit pay my full time salary, but the my university pay also my salary for GRA. My university said that if we do not pay your salary, it is means your GRA has been stopped, you may need pay tution for final semester, it is cost your lots of money, after graduation, you should return the money to university, because international student can not receive double pay. It is true?
If the GRA is less 20 h per week, (already reduce from 20 h to 13 h per week), it still need to return the money to university ?

2. Can I do full time OPT employment and part time GRA (13 h or less 20 h per week) during the pre OPT periods?


thanks


MD
