Amid concerns about the disruptions caused by travel restrictions during Trump’s first term as president, several top US universities are issuing travel advisories for their international students and faculty. More than half (54 percent) of all international students in the US are from India and China, according to data from the US Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and the Institute of International Education.
David Elwell, associate dean and director of the International Student Office at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, urged students to evaluate their travel plans during the upcoming winter break. New executive orders under Trump could impact travel and visa processing, he said.
