Donald Trump Administration suspended the registration of international students at the University of Harvard as part of the Federal Program of Visitors to Students and Exchange (SEVP). This is an important wound for the institution after the government suspended billions of pounds in federal financing in the middle of its reinforced conflict with the highest educational institutions. The suspension also raises questions about Indian students enrolled in the university.
Here are five things you should know about international registration:
What is SEVP certification?
Certification of SevP, issued by the Ministry of Internal Security, allows universities and universities to record international students on visas F-1 and M-1, which is the most common type of student visa. Institutions cannot issue an I-20 form, evidence of the enrollment that is necessary for visitors to maintain the status of students without Certification of the SevP.
What happens to Indian students registered at Harvard University?
With this new directive, the question of registered Indian students arises. Every year, according to official data, almost 500 to 800 Indian students and scientists are admitted to various schools and the Harvard University department each year. At present, 788 Indian students are studying at Harvard, especially in the postgraduate level programs.
International students registered at the University of Harvard will be obliged to transfer to another institution proposed by SevP. If you do not do so, this may lead to a loss of legal status in the US.
What happens to students who expect to graduate soon?
According to student newspapers at a university that quotes eight immigration lawyers, students expect students to end next week, must be eligible to obtain a title.
“If students meet all their consumption requirements, they should still be able to graduate, so it shouldn’t be a problem,” said Nicole Hallett, a professor of immigration rights at the University of Chicago’s Law School, Harvard Crimson.
