ICE Will Not Issue Visas To Students Enrolled In Online Classes Fall 2020

The Student and Exchange Visitor Program(SEVP) announced new modifications to the exemptions for students taking online classes for Fall 2020. Due to COVID-19 majority of the schools will not allow on campus classes.

According to ICE,

The U.S. Department of State will not issue visas to students enrolled in schools and/or programs that are fully online for the fall semester nor will U.S. Customs and Border Protection permit these students to enter the United States.

Nonimmigrant F-1 and M-1 students who are currently in the United States and are enrolled in classes online must leave the country or transferring to a school that allows on campus courses to keep their status. Failure to do so may result in removal proceedings.
