Published · Updated
AI-generated summary of the coverage listed below: Harvard University issued a message to all international students on its website, alerting them to major changes in U.S. immigration policy that will take effect on September 15, 2026. The Department of Homeland Security will replace the long‑standing “duration of status” system with fixed visa end dates for F‑1 and J‑1 students. Students re‑entering the U.S. after that date will face stricter limits and new visa frameworks, while those already in the country before the change will largely keep their current protections.
