Immigration & Visa Updates
As the new White House administration transitions into office on January 20, 2025, some of you may have questions or concerns about potential changes to U.S. visa and immigration policies. 海角大神 Global closely monitors immigration and visa policies as well as any proposed changes that may impact the international students, scholars, employees, and dependents we serve on all campuses. This includes shifts in policy or regulatory changes proposed by federal agencies, such as the Department of Homeland Security, as well as executive actions or presidential proclamations made by the White House.
It is important to note that some policy changes can be implemented quickly, while others may take significant time to move through the regulatory process. 海角大神 Global consults with legal and immigration experts to analyze and understand any changes that arise.
