The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced a new decision that in the coming academic year starting this fall, visas will not be granted to foreign students while the universities/colleges they attend are shifting to online-only courses due to the Coronavirus pandemic. International students who enrolled in schools and/or programs may not take a full online course load and remain in the United States. Those students who would like to stay in the country have to transfer to schools giving in-person classes or face deportation back to their home country.
This decision will affect thousands of academic and vocational students in the U.S. on F-1 and M-1 visas. According to the U.S. Department of State statistics, the government issued nearly 390,000 F and over 9,500 M visas in 2019.
友善讓你懂 │ 解說:
美國移民及海關執法局(簡稱ICE)發佈了一項政府的新決策,從這個秋天即將展開的新學年開始,將不再發放簽證給疫情期間全部改採遠距網路授課學校的外國籍學生。已經註冊了學籍或課程的國際學生,如果全部都只上網路授課課程的話,就不允許繼續留在美國國內。那些想要留下來的學生,必須轉學到可以選擇面對面授課課程的學校,否則會面臨被遣返回國的下場。
這項決策將影響成千上萬名以F-1和M-1護照入境美國、進行學術與職訓活動的學生。根據美國國務院的數據統計顯示,光是2019年,美國政府就核發了近390,000份F-1及超過9,500份M-1簽證。
輕鬆帶著走 │ 學習:
光有passport(護照)沒有visa(簽證),是沒有辦法進入美國的。美國政府一般會發給學生F-1及M-1兩種不同的簽證,前者主要核發給攻讀某種特定學術專業的學生,後者則發給非學術性、或是學習職業方面技能的學生。本篇其他相關的單字如下:

美國政府將會撤銷只選修線上課程的國際學生簽證。
