Another important announcement is done by Jean Morrison, BU provost and chief academic officer. She stated that the university is coordinating with other universities in USA to ensure that international students get visas and return to study in Boston. She further said that they continue to work with the state and federal representatives until the issue related to visas is resolved.
International students comprise 25% of the total population of BU and are an integral part of the university. Thus, BU is working effortlessly to support and welcome international students in the upcoming 2021 Fall Term. The recent announcement of the US State Department has given hopes to BU to retain international students. The US State Department has taken a decision to extend a National Interest Exception (NIE) to COVID-19–related Presidential Proclamations that allows students from UK, Ireland, South Africa, Iran, China, Brazil, the Schengen Area to travel to the United States with a valid travel visa.
