"Please note that, according to the Immigration Authority's decision, foreign students with student visas who do not attend frontal studies for at least nine hours per week during the fall semester will be forced to leave the United States," Israel's 600-hour (midnight) Monday morning announced Foreigners studying in the US at 2,800 academic and graduate study institutions.
Foreign students bring in less than $ 45 billion a year to US universities and are now asking the government to intervene in the immigration authority's decision to stop this provision. This is probably a technical instruction, derived from the dry law whereby the reason for the approval of these visas for students lies in their duty of attendance.
Therefore, when there is no such obligation, the reason does not exist and therefore under current law visas are not valid. According to the announcement of some of the academic institutions sent to students, the institutions themselves are learning the meaning and will be looking for solutions to prevent the order from being fulfilled. They may even consider reimbursing some of the university tuition rates, if not to prevent student deportation.
Most of the US students come from China and India followed, numerically, by students from the Gulf States and Canada. There, Bernie Sanders, who is retiring from the Democratic presidential race, quickly responded to the decision, saying "this is another vicious White House decision."
