White House Approves Rule Capping Foreign Students' US Stay at Four Years
Times of India·Saturday, 20 June 2026
The White House has approved a new Department of Homeland Security rule that ends open-ended stays for foreign students, exchange visitors, and media representatives in the US. These individuals will now receive a fixed four-year admission period and must renew their status after that. Medical organisations and college groups have opposed the rule, warning of administrative burdens.
Why It Matters
Thousands of Indian students study in the US each year, and this rule directly changes how long they can stay and what steps they must take to remain legally enrolled.
