Recently, the USA has announced that F-1 and M-1 Visa holders who are planning to take online only models will not be allowed to stay in the USA.
F-1 visas are issued to study in the USA for full-time students whereas M-1 visas are issued to students engaging in vocational or non-academic studies.
USA has also suspended H1-B highly skilled worker visas through the end of the year. Most of these visas go to Indian citizens each year.
The students outside the USA planning to take all courses online in the fall semester would not be permitted entry into the country.
Normally F-1 students are allowed to take one class or three credit hours online in a given semester.
India is the second largest source of the foreign students in the USA after China.
Affected students may switch to visitor status but it is not a long term solution as visitor status is short term and there is no guarantee that it will be approved.
