S it risky to travel abroad this summer on F-1? I’m scared of getting stuck

I wanted to go home for a month in July, but now I’m nervous because of all the stories about people getting stuck due to administrative processing or changes in policy.

Has anyone recently traveled on F-1 and re-entered safely? What documents did you carry? Would love some reassurance.

Really depends, but if you’re on OPT and Day 1 CPT, is more risky compare to a graduate student on summer break. Focus on education outcome before employment is what I heard the most important
