Context:
US State Department has announced that it would not issue visas to students enrolled in schools that are fully online in the upcoming semester.
Concept:
- F1 visas are issued to students attending an academic program in the United States and M1 visas are for students enrolled in vocational studies.
- All students with active F1 and M1 non-immigrant visas will not be allowed in the US and those already present in the country may be asked to depart if they are not receiving a minimum amount of in person instruction.
- The move is likely to impact 2 lakh Indian students in the United States.
