The United States government on Tuesday warned Indian and international students their visas to study in the US would be revoked if they “skip classes, drop out, or leave their course" without intimating the college.
Such individuals could also lose eligibility for US visas in the future, the US embassy in India said.
"If you drop out, skip classes, or leave your program of study without informing your school, your student visa may be revoked, and you may lose eligibility for future US visas. Always adhere to the terms of your visa and maintain your student status to avoid any issues," it posted on its X handle.
According to the Associated Press, more than 4,700 international students had their permission to study in America revoked this spring with little notice or explanation, as part of President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigrants and foreign nationals.
In many cases, neither the students nor the universities are aware that the record of a student is removed from SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System). SEVIS is an online platform through which the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), specifically the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), monitors international students and exchange visitors in the United States.
