U.S. Dept of Homeland Security issues guidance on Fall term 2020

On July 6, 2020 the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) issued new guidance on procedures that will apply to international students for Fall term 2020.  The government will be publishing a Temporary Final Rule and plans to issue a set of FAQs to supplement the new guidance.  We do not know the date(s) when the rule and FAQs will be published.  OVIS is currently reviewing this initial guidance and will provide information to our international students soon regarding its impact for both new and continuing undergraduate and graduate students.
