COVID-19: US to deport foreign students receiving online classes
“Active students who currently in the United States and enrolled in such programs must leave the country or take other measures, such as transferring to a school with in-person instruction to remain in lawful status.“Non-immigrant students attending schools adopting a hybrid model that is, a mixture of online and in-person classes will be allowed to take more than one class or three credit hours online.
“These schools must clarify with the SEVP, through the “Certificate of Eligibility for Non-immigrant Student Status,” certifying that the program is not entirely online, that the students are not taking an entirely online course load this semester, and that the student is taking the minimum number of online classes required to make normal progress in their degree program.
“Schools are also required to update their information in the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System, SEVIS, within 10 days of the change if they begin the fall semester with in-person classes but are later required to switch to only online classes, or a non-immigrant student changes their course selections, and as a result, ends up taking an online course load.
“Non-immigrant students within the US are not permitted to take a full course of study through online classes.
