Travel and immigration 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. IU 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. IU Global consults with legal and immigration experts to analyze and understand any changes that arise.
To keep the IU community informed, IU Global will update this page with any relevant changes and send direct communications when immediate updates are necessary. Additionally, forums or webinars may be scheduled to clarify specific changes impacting the international community. While we cannot predict future policy changes, we are committed to clarifying the implications of new regulations or policies and how they may affect you. To avoid misinformation, we will refrain from addressing pending legislation, speculative reports, or unverified information circulating in the media or on social platforms.
At this time, no new changes have been implemented that affect the international student, scholar, employee, or dependent populations served by IU Global.
