Widespread Revocation of International Student Visas Across U.S. Colleges
In a significant crackdown, the Department of Homeland Security has revoked visas for numerous international students at various universities across the nation. Harsh measures reportedly targeting students include the abrupt cancellation of F-1 visas without prior notice, leaving many students, including those from Harvard, the University of Michigan, and Central Michigan University, in precarious situations. Officials have confirmed that the revocations affect students from over a dozen California universities as well, with reports indicating that hundreds may be impacted overall. The revocations are part of a broader trend of federal actions that critics argue undermines legal residency and educational opportunities for international students, raising concerns about their futures and the implications for U.S. higher education.
