With students at many colleges winding down for winter break, universities like Harvard and Cornell are urging international students to return to campus by January 20, before Trump’s inauguration. This stems from past travel bans he enacted that affected numerous students. The guidance, driven by uncertainty about future policies, highlights concerns regarding potential border delays and new restrictions on international travel, including possibly expanded country lists for designated entry bans.
Leading institutions are aware of the anxiety caused by prior travel bans instituted during Trump's presidency. They stress that students should return before the inauguration to avoid potential issues related to border checks or processing delays. The warnings come in light of Trump's repeated statements indicating he might reinforce these travel restrictions, with a particular focus on countries affected in his first term, raising alarms in the student community.
