The Trump administration's abrupt termination of legal status for over a thousand international students primarily due to minor police interactions raised concerns. However, the administration reversed this decision during an ongoing federal court case, allowing these students to continue their studies in the U.S. After the status restoration, students from institutions like De Anza College can now graduate and participate in ceremonies. This reversal has reignited discussions on immigration policies, especially concerning students' rights and future in the U.S.
Officials said some students may try to come back. Broadly, Trump administration officials have encouraged immigrants who break the law to leave the U.S. of their own will or risk arrest.
Nazy Galoyan, dean of enrollment services and international student programs, states that two international students returned home last month and will finish their associate's degree coursework online.
Those students will graduate in June, and now, they're legally allowed to attend their ceremonies and potentially continue their studies at a four-year university in the U.S.
I hope they can come back to walk, she said. That depends if they decide to come back or not. That was taken from them.
