Under a proposed change, foreigners would not be allowed to stay for more than four years on student visas in the United States.
The United States, until now, has generally issued visas for the duration of a student's educational program or a journalist's assignment, although no non-immigrant visas are valid for more than 10 years.
Trump’s Department of Homeland Security alleged that an unspecified number of foreigners were indefinitely extending their studies so they could remain in the country as “’forever’ students.”
The department did not explain how US citizens and taxpayers were hurt by international students, who according to Commerce Department statistics contributed more than $50 billion to the US economy in 2023.
A group representing leaders of US colleges and universities denounced the latest move as a needless bureaucratic hurdle that intrudes on academic decision-making and could further deter potential students who would otherwise contribute to research and job creation.
“This is not only detrimental to international students -- it also weakens the ability of US colleges and universities to attract top talent, diminishing our global competitiveness.”
The announcement came as universities were starting their academic years with many reporting lower enrollments of international students after earlier actions by the Trump administration. - AFP
