We are happy to report that on May 11, 2023, the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) terminated its Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) guidance to coincide with the end of the COVID-19 National Emergency and Public Health Emergency. Please read the full article here: .
As mentioned in the article, 鈥渨hile the Student and Exchange Visitor Program’s (SEVP) COVID-19 guidance is terminated as of May 11, 2023, Active F nonimmigrant students will be able to complete the 2022-23 academic year under the COVID-19 flexibilities through the 2023 summer semester. However, Active F nonimmigrant students will not be permitted to count online classes toward a full course of study in excess of the regulatory limits stated in 8 CFR 214.2(f)(6)(i)(G) for the 2023-24 academic year.鈥� This regulation states that F-1 students may only count one online or distance education class (does not require the student鈥檚 physical attendance in the classroom) towards the full course of study requirement.
Accordingly, we have updated our plan for delivery of education through in-person classes at 麻豆社 (ANU).
