Trump administration rescinds rule on international students studying online
BOSTON —
Facing eight federal lawsuits and opposition from hundreds of universities,
the Trump administration on Tuesday rescinded a rule that would have requiredinternational students to transfer or leave the country if their schools heldclasses entirely online because of the pandemic.
The decision was announced at the start of a hearing in a federal lawsuit in
Boston brought by Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology. U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs said federal immigration
authorities agreed to pull the July 6 directive and “return to the status
quo.”
A lawyer representing the Department of Homeland Security and U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement said only that the judge’s
characterization was correct.
The announcement brings relief to thousands of foreign students who had been
at risk of being deported from the country, along with hundreds of
universities that were scrambling to reassess their plans for the fall in
light of the policy.
Under the policy, international students in the U.S. would have been
forbidden from taking all their courses online this fall. New visas would nothave been issued to students at schools planning to provide all classes
online, which includes Harvard. Students already in the U.S. would have faceddeportation if they didn’t transfer schools or leave the country voluntarily.
Immigration officials issued the policy last week, reversing earlier guidancefrom March 13 telling colleges that limits around online education would be
suspended during the pandemic. University leaders believed the rule was part
of President Donald Trump’s effort to pressure the nation’s schools and
colleges to reopen this fall even as new virus cases rise.
The policy drew sharp backlash from higher education institutions, with more
than 200 signing court briefs supporting the challenge by Harvard and MIT.
Colleges said the policy would put students’ safety at risk and hurt schools
financially. Many schools rely on tuition from international students, and
some stood to lose millions of dollars in revenue if the rule had taken hold.
Harvard and MIT were the first to contest the policy, but at least seven
other federal suits had been filed by universities and states opposing the
rule.
Harvard and MIT argued that immigration officials violated procedural rules
by issuing the guidance without justification and without allowing the publicto respond. They also argued that the policy contradicted ICE’s March 13
directive telling schools that existing limits on online education would be
suspended “for the duration of the emergency.”
The suit noted that Trump’s national emergency declaration has not been
rescinded and that virus cases are spiking in some regions.
Immigration officials, however, argued that they told colleges all along thatany guidance prompted by the pandemic was subject to change. They said the
rule was consistent with existing law barring international students from
taking classes entirely online. Federal officials said they were providing
leniency by allowing students to keep their visas even if they study online
from abroad.
