US: Foreigners Can't Stay for Online Classes
Ozy, 7-7-20
Here's your degree from the school of hard knocks. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said yesterday it'll boot foreigners on student visas if their schools opt for online-only classes in the fall. While students could transfer to other schools with in-person instruction, they'd have to reapply for admission — and many institutions, like Harvard, are planning online-only fall sessions to slow the spread of coronavirus. Some 400,000 people have F-1 or M-1 visas affected by the policy. Also hurting will be U.S. schools, which rely heavily on $2.5 billion in annual revenue from foreign students.
