SLCC is offering guidance to its international students in response to July 7, 2020, news release by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) guidelines posted on Monday, July 6 modified the temporary exemptions related to the online study policy instituted for the spring and summer semesters. For the Fall 2020 semester, international students cannot take classes solely online. SLCC has changed many of its fall courses to the hybrid model which meets on-campus in classroom for specific day(s) and time, and the remainder of the course is completed online with set due dates. This option will allow our international students to continue their education at SLCC. Under the new guideline, students will be allowed to take more than one class or three credit hours online which was the previous limit for international students. SLCC recently eliminated all out-of-state and international tuition and fees which furthers supports our many international students’ efforts at obtaining a quality, affordable education. In the 2019-2020 academic year SLCC had over students from 20 different countries around the world.
