Earlier this month, International students in the USA found themselves in a fix when the Trump administration issued a new policy. With the onset of the pandemic, these students who hold F1 and M1 visas would have had to leave the country or transfer to another school if their school's fall semester was held completely online. The US government, however, rescinded the policy on July 14, much to the relief of the students.

According to the data that is based on official announcements from 1,137 universities, only 8.5 per cent of the universities are planning to hold their classes completely online. This list of 97 colleges includes Princeton University too. 19 colleges are waiting to make a decision on what model works the best.
