Join NAFSA staff members David Fosnocht and Steve Springer for a discussion of new visa issues and a recap of peak visa season 2025. We’ll briefly review the legal framework and discuss new issues including social media vetting, travel bans and possible expansion, recent reductions in visa validity for many countries, revisions to the visa interview waiver policy, and “visa integrity fees.”  We’ll also review the results of NAFSA’s survey on the impacts of Department of State’s suspension of visa appointment availability.  Most important, though, we want to hear from you about your students and scholars’ experiences during the 2025 peak visa application season and visa denial rates and delay problems.

We realize that this is the busiest time of year for many of you, so the webinar will be recorded, and the polls and questions are available HERE so that you may participate even if you can’t attend the live event.
