Federal judge blocks four-year limit on international student visas
Original: Federal judge blocks ruling limiting F-1 visa international students to 4 years
A federal judge has blocked a government rule that would have limited F-1 student visas to four years, a change that would have forced many international students to leave the United States before finishing longer degree programmes, including doctoral studies. The ruling preserves the existing system, which allows students to remain for the duration of their studies. Universities and international students had opposed the limit, warning it would deter enrollment and disrupt research.
Why now: The decision directly affects international students, universities and visa policy, making it timely news as people assess what it means for enrollment and immigration rules.
