Trump administration withdraws restrictions on online-only instruction for foreign students

Washington, July 14,(UNI) The Trump administration rescinded its policy that would bar international students who only take online courses from staying in the US, a federal judge announced on Tuesday, CNN reported.
The decision comes a little over a week after Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced that students at schools offering only online courses due to the coronavirus pandemic would need to either leave the US or transfer schools.
According to another source, the White House is now focused on applying the rule only on new students, rather than upon students who are already in the US. The White House declined to comment on an ongoing policy process.
