The policy by Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) from July 6, 2020, regarding international students on F and M visas and their ability to take online classes has been rescinded and will not be implemented. Instead, the policy from March 9, 2020, will be observed, which allows international students to take online classes and remain in the United States.
This means that the immigration records for international students who continue to participate in their coursework online and maintain a full-time course load through the Fall 2020 semester will not be negatively impacted. Please view the information from the Office of International Programs for more details.
