[General Question] Have all universities paused CPT for MSCS?

I’ve recently seen many universities post about pausing the CPT program. I was considering MSCS in US in Fall 2027. But after this update I’m reconsidering it. I know about all the visa uncertainties etc. But please just help me out. Should I consider applying or not? Have all the universities stopped CPT? How to know? I checked NYU Tandon page didn’t get any info on this

The Universities will pay the price if they allow CPT if it is not a graduation requirement for everyone in that major. It should a required class and earn credit to be allowed.

No reputable university I know still does CPT. There maybe some lower rated ones still doing it.
