Safety/Security Alert for Students in the United States

What advice should international students consider?

International students in the United States should take several important factors into account, especially in light of the current political climate and actions taken by the Trump administration. Specifically:

Travel Caution: International students should be cautious about personal international travel. Given the potential for changes in visa regulations and the risk of visa revocation upon re-entry, it may be wise to postpone any non-essential travel outside the U.S. until there is more clarity on immigration policies. If travel is necessary, students should ensure they have all required documentation, including a valid visa, I-20 form, and any other relevant paperwork.
Stay Informed: It is crucial for international students to stay updated on any changes to immigration policies that may affect their status. This includes monitoring announcements from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), their university's international student office, and reputable news sources. Understanding the implications of any new policies can help students make informed decisions.
Documentation: Students should carry documentation proving their immigration status at all times. This includes their passport, visa, I-20 form, and any other relevant documents. Having these on hand can be essential in case of any encounters with law enforcement or immigration officials.
Protests and Political Activities: While freedom of speech and the right to protest are protected rights in the U.S., international students should exercise caution when participating in protests or political demonstrations. Engaging in protests can sometimes attract attention from law enforcement, and there is a risk that participation could be misinterpreted or lead to complications regarding their immigration status. Students should weigh the potential risks and benefits of participating in such activities and consider whether it aligns with their personal safety and immigration status.
Seek Support: International students should not hesitate to seek support from their university's international student office, legal advisors, or community organizations. These resources can provide guidance on navigating the complexities of immigration policies and offer assistance in case of any legal issues.
Community Engagement: Building a supportive community can be beneficial. Connecting with other international students and local organizations can provide a sense of belonging and help students stay informed about their rights and any changes in the political landscape.

By taking these precautions and staying informed, international students can better navigate the challenges posed by the current political environment while ensuring their safety and compliance with U.S. immigration laws.

Are travel bans currently in effect in the United States?

As of June 9, 2025, the United States' extensive new travel ban took effect, barring nationals of 12 countries from entering the U.S. and partially restricting those from another seven.

The full ban applies to foreign nationals from 12 countries: Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen.

Heightened restrictions apply to people from Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan and Venezuela.

The ban targets the visa application process, including applications that are already in progress in the now-banned countries. The State Department instructed U.S. embassies and consulates last week not to revoke visas already issued to people from the 12 banned countries, according to a cable obtained by the Associated Press.

But, it says, people from those countries who have not yet received their visas, even though their applications were approved, will be denied. Starting June 9, 2025, peoples' applications will be rejected unless they qualify for an exemption.

People who are not U.S. citizens generally must show a valid visa (or a waiver) to enter the country. It is up to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents to decide whether to admit or deny entry to individuals at the border.
