The State Department announced a halt to all new F, J, and M visa interviews on May 27, threatening the arrival of international students and scholars before the start of the fall semester and triggering a host of short-term and long-term consequences for international education. NAFSA has launched an urgent advocacy campaign that urges members of Congress to press the Department of State to resume visa appointments immediately. Join us!

Get the latest updates on this issue from NAFSA leaders as well as some strategies and resources for how international educators can make the case with campus and congressional leaders that international students and scholars are essential to the U.S. economy, workforce development, and national security.
