Geee Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 The Hill Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced Monday that international students in the U.S. whose schools switch to online classes for the fall semester will have to leave the country or risk violating their visa status. Under the new rule, foreign nationals enrolled in U.S. educational institutions will have to leave the country unless part of their course load this fall is taken in-person. The Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) had allowed for foreign students to take their spring and summer 2020 courses online while remaining in the United States, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. SEVP, the institution that sets the rules for student visas, is run by ICE, which is generally dedicated to immigration enforcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
