Good news has come for students who dream of studying in America. America has lifted the ban on student visa. This means that now students can go to America and study. But the Trump administration has made a condition mandatory for this, which may be unpleasant for the students.
In fact, under the new guidelines issued by the State Department, foreign students wishing to study in America will have to get their social media profiles screened. This decision has been taken so that anti-American content or posts on the student’s social media can be checked.
At the end of May this year, the US temporarily stopped issuing visas to foreign students. A senior State Department official said, “Enhanced social media investigations will ensure that we can properly investigate everyone trying to enter our country.
For this, US embassy officials will conduct a thorough investigation of all students and applicants, the official said. To facilitate the screening, student visa applicants will be asked to set the privacy setting on all their social media profiles to “public”, the official said.
