The Trump administration has issued another warning to international students, stating that dropping out or skipping classes or leaving your course without informing the school may result in the cancellation of the student visa and your possibility of getting a visa for the US in the future may also be canceled.

It is worth noting that the Trump administration is getting stricter about US visa rules and new instructions are being issued every day for visa conditions, due to which many students going to study in the US are at risk of being sent back to their countries.

A few days ago, the Trump administration had asked Harvard University to cancel its international student program and in the latest order, the Trump administration has asked federal agencies to cancel the agreement with Harvard.
